Vegan Carob Waffles

Image
The delicious vegan Carob Waffle  (NOT Pancake) I have been publishing (and sampling) so many carob recipes lately that it was inevitable that I would next come up with a delicious carob waffle recipe-- our household LOVES a great waffle! So, here it is! And it is soooo YUMMY!  I am not exaggerating!  INGREDIENTS: 2 cups of whole wheat flour 2/3 cup of raw carob flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda (without aluminum) 1 very ripe mashed banana 2/3 cup granulated sugar 1 1/2 cup of non-dairy milk (I used soy) 1/2 cup of filtered water 2/3 cup of grape seed oil *all of the above ingredients (except baking soda/baking powder/water) were organic but use what you have access to. **I did not use salt or vanilla because our little dog likes carob treats that we like. You can add how much salt and/or vanilla you usually use-- I didn't notice any problem with deleting them. ***Grape seed oil is a polyunsaturated, mild flavored oil that goes well with sweet items. METHOD

This recipe is simple and is suitable to a diet where poured oils are restricted.  It's about as vegan as you will ever see in an "Irish" recipe.  My grandmother used to make a similar potato soup, and I miss her and the soup.  Happy St Patrick's Day! Oil-Free Potato Soup Recipe INGREDIENTS: 4 large Potatoes 2 large Onions 2 cups/473 ml. Water 1 teaspoon/ 5.92 g  Salt 1 tablespoon/8 g  Whole Grain or Gluten-free Flour 2 cups/475ml. Non-Dairy Milk METHOD: Dice potatoes and onions into small pieces  Mix all ingredients (except Milk) in a blender and add the potatoes and onions Cook, stirring occasionally When the veggies are fork-tender, add the milk. Warm to just about boiling (but do not boil) Cooked barley and/or mint give it a delightful flavour and texture. (My Grandmother added black pepper).
