BUCKWHEAT WAFFLES EGG-FREE NUT-FREE GLUTEN-FREE VEGAN-1

These easy vegan and gluten-free waffles are made from blended buckwheat groats and contain no added starches or flours. They are a nutrient-dense way to start your day, as buckwheat contains numerous anti-inflammatory polyphenols (such as rutin and quercetin), as well as fiber, protein, and minerals (such as manganese and magnesium). Serve waffles with a dollop of coconut yogurt, fresh berries, and pure maple syrup. They are also delicious slathered with sunflower seed butter or almond butter for an afternoon snack!

Ingredients
2 cups buckwheat groats
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1½ cups water
1 cups unsweetened applesauce
2 tablespoons avocado oil (or coconut oil)
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoons cinnamon
½ teaspoons sea salt
2½ teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoons baking soda

These are great! I love that it only uses whole grains. These are not too sweet and a great vehicle for toppings.
