Ingredients & Substitutions
Chickpea flour is such a great addition here; it helps bind the waffles and adds a nice protein boost. If you don’t have it, you could try using oat flour or even all-purpose flour, but I highly recommend sticking with chickpea for that unique flavor!
Tips & Notes
- •I love to top mine with a dollop of guacamole and some fresh salsa—it’s a party in my mouth!
- •If you find the mixture too thick, just add a splash more plant-based almond milk until it reaches a good consistency.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll toss in some chopped sun-dried tomatoes or olives for an Italian twist.
- •You could experiment with different spices—try curry powder for an exotic flavor!
Storage & Freezing

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Grease it lightly with olive oil.
