Nutella Waffles
Nothing makes me happier at breakfast than a stack of my Nutella waffles. They’re crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and absolutely loaded with rich, chocolatey goodness. I love that these waffles are ready in under an hour and perfect for busy mornings. Plus, they’re easy to customize with vegan and gluten-free options!

Equipment
- Waffle Iron
Ingredients
- 1¼ cup all-purpose flour or gluten free flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 cup oat milk
- 1 egg or 1 flax egg for vegan
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp light oil coconut oil or melted butter
- ½ cup nutella
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle machine.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder and sugar in a mixing bowl.
- In a separate mixing bowl add the oat milk, egg, vanilla extract, oil and nutella. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk until incorporated and no lumps, being careful not to overmix the batter.
- Scoop the batter into the waffle machine, being careful not to over fill, and cook as directed by the manufacturer.
- When the waffle is cooked remove and repeat with remaining batter. Batter makes 6 large waffles.
- Serve topped with a drizzle of nutella, crushed hazelnuts, whipped cream or coconut cream or any of your favorite toppings.
Notes
-
- I make sure my waffle iron is hot enough before adding the batter. I learned this the hard way when I was in a rush one morning and didn’t wait long enough, the result? Soft, pale waffles that just didn’t have that crisp I was looking for. Now, I always let my waffle maker fully preheat before I start cooking, and trust me, the difference is huge. The waffles come out golden, crispy on the outside, and perfectly fluffy inside, just the way they should be.
- I always use a good quality waffle maker because it makes a huge difference! A non-stick surface and even heating help my Nutella waffles turn out crispy and perfect every time.
-
- I’m careful not to overfill the waffle iron, too much batter makes them thick and undercooked, too little makes them flat. I stick to the recommended amount and adjust as needed for my waffle maker.
-
- If I’m making a big batch, I keep the waffles warm in the oven while I cook the rest. Placing them on a baking sheet or straight on the oven rack helps keep them crispy until it’s time to serve!
