Light and Fluffy Vegan Waffles with Blueberry Sauce

These vegan waffles are light and fluffy – you’ll never guess that they’re free of eggs and dairy! A perfect weekend breakfast, especially when topped with blueberry sauce.

For those with food allergies or dietary needs, breakfast can be the most difficult meal of the day. If you used to eat eggs for breakfast, but can’t do that anymore, breakfast is the meal where you can get into a rut.
You can drink smoothies, eat granola, eat steel-cut oats, etc., but you may miss being able to have that easy form of protein that is an egg.

If you don’t eat eggs, you may wonder about pancakes and waffles as well. How will you make those? Will they still taste good? Can vegans eat waffles?

Thankfully, egg-free pancakes and vegan waffles are easy to make with lots of baking powder to make them light and fluffy. We make pancakes on the weekends here, but only rarely make waffles. Every time we make waffles I change the recipe a little bit, and I finally have a recipe that is light and fluffy, and perfect topped with blueberries!
