- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay!
