Dit Bokwiet Wafels are easy, healthy, crispy, gluten-free waffles for breakfast. These waffles are also egg-free, dairy-free, and 100% vegan.
I love making healthier versions of the classics. This recipe is a healthier alternative to Veganistiese Wafels net soos myne Vegan Bokwietpannekoeke are a healthier take on my Veganistiese pannekoeke. Iโve developed a great appreciation (and expertise) for recipes with buckwheat.

What Are Buckwheat Waffles?
Buckwheat Waffles are like my classic vegan waffles recipe but made with buckwheat flour. Buckwheat flour is an amazing flour to use in vegan buckwheat recipes. Soos quinoa, buckwheat is one of these forgotten ancient grains โ technically seeds โ that is also gluten-free and a nutritional powerhouse loaded with all the essential amino acids.
Buckwheat is a complete protein, ideal for anyone on a vegan lifestyle to load your body with all the amino acids it needs to function. So after sharing some delicious French buckwheat flour crepes last year, here is a waffle buckwheat recipe for you.
Bestanddele en vervangings
All you need to make crispy, light buckwheat flour waffles are a few basic ingredients:
- Bokwietmeel โ My buckwheat flour is light in color because the brand I used is made from unroasted buckwheat groats. Some brands are darker in color because they are made of roasted buckwheat groats. Whatever you pick, the amount of flour stays unchanged, and the result will be delicious.
- Koeksoda en Bakpoeier โ itโs essential to use both baking soda and baking powder.
- Onversoete amandelmelk โ or any plant-based milk like coconut milk, soy milk, oat milk, or cashew milk.
- Appelasyn โ Vinegar adds acidity that helps the baking soda make its effect.
- Esdoringstroop โ Or any other liquid sweetener such as coconut nectar or agave syrup.
- Vanielje-ekstrak โ For the taste.
- Gesmelte klapperolie
How To Make Buckwheat Waffles
Itโs so easy to bake with buckwheat that once you try and enjoy its earthy flavor, you wonโt stop.
- Whisk all the dry ingredients into a bowl: buckwheat flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Then, make a well in the center of the flour and add the almond milk, apple cider vinegar, oil, and vanilla extract.
- Whisk to combine evenly and form a smooth, runny slightly thick grey waffle batter.
- Preheat the waffle iron and use an oil spray to oil the iron plates.
- When the iron is hot and the green light shows, add 1/2 cup of batter per waffle. This is the size for a regular large waffle maker, I use a Tefal iron maker see recipe note for details.
- Fill both waffle iron cavities, using a spoon to help spread the batter evenly all over the waffle iron plate.
- Close and cook for 2 to 3 minutes then open and check. The waffles should be crispy and light, if not, bake for an extra minute.
- Cool down on a wire rack, and the buckwheat flour waffles crisp as they cool down.

Bergingsinstruksies
These vegan gluten-free waffles store well in an airtight container placed in the fridge for up to 4 days. The precooked waffles lose their crispiness in the fridge. But you can fix that as you rewarm the waffles. Try a bread toaster, the waffle iron, or your air fryer.
Air fry the waffles for 2-3 minutes at 350ยฐF (180ยฐC) or until they are crispy. You can also store the waffle batter uncooked in the fridge, in a bowl covered with a silicone lid. The batter will last 2 days uncooked. Bake the waffle in the morning in the hot waffle iron. The last option is to freeze the cooked waffles and thaw them at room temperature the day before.
Allergie-ruilings
Below I listed some allergy swaps to make this recipe suitable for everyone. But keep in mind that this waffle recipe is already naturally:
- Eiervry
- Dairy-vry
- Vegan
- Glutenvrye โ buckwheat flour has no wheat as its name may confuse you. Itโs fully gluten-free flour.
However, you may want to make the waffles:
- Olie-vry โ Swap the oil for unsweetened apple sauce or dairy-free yogurt or pumpkin puree.
- Suiker vrye โ Omit the sugar or replace it with sugar-free pancake syrup or sugar-free crystal sweetener like erythritol.
- Vinegar-Free โ Swap vinegar with orange juice, lemon juice, or lime juice.

Algemene vrae
Below are the answers to your most frequent questions about baking buckwheat flour waffles.
Usually, you can swap one by the other following the same ratio, but I didnโt try that. Instead, I recommend you try my vegan waffle recipe itโs made with all-purpose flour and has no eggs or dairy as well.
Some buckwheat flour brands are darker it varies from light grey white to dark grey black depending on how the flour is made. Some brands use roasted buckwheat groats, and others donโt.
You can grind buckwheat groats in a coffee grinder or high-speed blender such as a Vitamix. Use the same amount of buckwheat groats, equivalent to the amount of buckwheat flour in this recipe. You canโt make buckwheat flour in a food processor.
Yes, buckwheat flour has no gluten.

Iโve made this several times. Iโve used a waffle instead of bread. It is the fastest gluten free recipe I have since it only requires one flour. Tonight I noticed a discrepancy, if you use 1/2cup in a regular waffle maker you get 5 waffles. If you were to use 1/4 cup in a mini waffle maker, youโd get 10. Not sure whether the nutrition information refers to 1 mini or 1 regular waffle, I suspect 1 mini waffle.
The nutrition is for 1 serving from 10 waffles.
These were the best waffles I ever tasted. I wanted a bit of crunch because I was initially looking for a buckwheat and corn meal recipe. So I made this exactly as written except I used 1 cup buckwheat and 1/2 cup raw polenta ground corn meal. OMGoodness!!! Delish. My husband loved them also, we didnโt even put syrup on them! I will definitely make them again. Next time Iโm going to try using 1 TBLS of coconut oil instead of 2.
Thank you so much for this recipe!
Thatโs so nice to hear, thank you!
Simple and easy recipe! My family loved it!
Dankie!
can this be made with almond flour and tapioca flour?
It will be new recipe to create, using different ratio. I havenโt tried yet sorry
Use a high setting on your waffle maker, this makes a dense batter. Next time Iโll add a bit of cinnamon to the mix.
Delicious Thank you!
The waffles turned out beautifully and the flavor is good. However, I feel like it needed salt? Itโs just missing something. If I made it again I would try adding a pinch or two of salt.
You are right, I will update the recipe adding 1/4 teaspoon of salt! itโs a great point.
I tried this on Valentines day as a healthy dessert with raspberries and custard โ instead of a cake! It came tasty, but the dough was not as light & fluffy as I had hoped. I will try it again on the weekend with less sugar and whisk it longer for a savory breakfast waffle.
