Ingredients

1 3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour or oat flour for gluten free
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon ground flax seed
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup unsweetened soy or almond milk any plant milk
1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup vegan dark chocolate chips

Optional Toppings

sliced strawberries
blueberries
raspberries
date syrup

Instructions

Preheat a waffle griddle.
Milk together all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
Add the milk, apple sauce, & vanilla and mix until well combined. Add more milk for thinner consistency. Mix in vegan chocolate chips if using.
If you have a non-stick waffle iron you won't have to use any oil, like a ceramic-coated one. But if you don't, lightly spray both sides of the waffle griddle with cooking spray. Using the waffle maker scoop (usually about a 1/4 cup) pour batter into the griddle. Close & cook according to the directions.
Makes about 4 large waffles, depending on the size of your waffle maker.
Top with fresh berries and serve immediately!

Notes

You can store the waffles in an air tight container for up to 7 days. Reheat waffle in the microwave for 30 seconds to warm.

If you don't have a waffle maker, you can use this recipe to make pancakes! Pour a 1/4 cup of the batter on to a pan or griddle on medium heat. When the edges look dry, flip and cook for 2 more minutes.

The BEST WFPB syrup to use is date syrup! It's just dates and water blended up, so you get all the nutrition and fiber, and it is lower on the glycemic index than regular syrup. Many grocery stores now carry date syrup, but you can also buy it online. My favorite is The Date Lady (https://ilovedatelady.com/ - use Promo Code SPBK15 to get 15% off your first order!)
