Allergy Friendly Waffles – Dairy Free, Egg Free, Peanut Free

Waffle Sunday accidentally started in our household in the winter of 2015; and it’s been going strong ever since. I’m not sure how my boys (including my husband) roped me into making waffles every Sunday, but I have been for nearly 2 years now and it doesn’t look like it’s stopping anytime soon.

I’m kind of hugely okay with that though, because I, myself, love a good waffle… or 3…

It took time to perfect my waffle making skills though, because my oldest son has most of the top 8 food allergens. He is allergic to dairy, eggs, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, and seeds.

So finding a waffle recipe that is delicious, duplicatable weekly, and not to unclean to eat wasn’t an overnight task. But I did it and it’s CRAZY easy and CRAZY tasty. When we have guests who eat them, they rave about how amazing, fluffy, and scrumptious these waffles are. Most people are in awe that they are even and allergy friendly recipe because they are so delicious.

Before we hop down to the recipe, I want to note that this makes about 8 waffles. Cut the recipe in half if you want less waffles. This recipe can also be used for pancakes.

Okay, enough chatter. Time to grab your waffle maker and get to cookin’ some Applesauce Coconut Milk Waffles!

Ingredients:
-3.5 cups flour
-2 tbsp baking powder
-1/2 tsp salt
-2 tsp ground cinnamon
-1 tsp pumpkin spice (optional)
-1/2 cup applesauce
-3.5 cups coconut milk
-3/4 cup olive oil
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-2-4 drops nutmeg essential oils (optional)

Directions:
In your mixer, add all the wet ingredients and mix on medium for 1-2 minutes. I like to make sure all the wet ingredients are well combined and ever so slightly frothy. 

Add in the dry ingredients and mix on medium-high for 2-3 minutes, until batter is smooth. You may have to stop half way through and scrape the edges of the mixing bowl to ensure all the flour is getting mixed in the batter.

Cook the waffles according to your waffle maker instructions or use the batter to make pancakes. Serve warm, and top with berries, peanut butter, banana, syrup, or whatever else you want!
