Waffles or pancakes? I’m more of a waffle type of girl, especially when they’re as easy to make as these vegan banana waffles!

With just five ingredients, these easy whole-food plant-based waffles are the perfect vegan meal-prep breakfast. I like to make a whole bunch of waffles before work on Monday and enjoy them all week.

They’re also perfect for a delicious Sunday brunch, paired with my infamous Vegan Baked Bean and Potato Breakfast Hash. These two are a match made in heaven.

  • Did I mention there are only 5 ingredients in this recipe? So simple! Just as importantly, it’s a very affordable breakfast!

How to Make This Recipe

Preheat your waffle maker. If needed, add some spray oil to prevent the batter from sticking.

Combine all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Pour 1/4 a cup of the batter into the waffle maker and close for approximately five minutes, until steam starts coming out. Repeat until batter is used up. This will make approximately five waffles. It may depend on the size of your waffle maker, too.

Top with vegan butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or anything your heart desires! In fact, how about some crispy vegan bacon?

Hack It!

  • Want to eat these waffles every morning? Why not double the recipe, then reheat the waffles when it’s time to enjoy your breakfast!
  • I love to top my waffles with maple syrup and a ton of berries, but you could add peanut butter, almond butter, or more bananas. The possibilities are truly endless.
  • I’m happy to share that this easy batter recipe can also be used for delicious pancakes! Follow the instructions below and prepare in a pan instead of a waffle iron.
  • If you want to make this waffle recipe gluten-free, you can simply swap out the whole wheat flour for oat flour. I love making my oat flour at home by simply throwing oats in the blender and combining until smooth.
  • For a nut-free version of these waffles, replace almond milk with another dairy-free alternative.
