**Carrot Walnut And Raisin Vegan Belgian Waffles**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
– 1 cup shredded carrots
– 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
– 1/4 cup raisins
– 1 1/4 cups almond milk
– 1/4 cup maple syrup
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– Vegan butter or oil for greasing waffle iron
– Toppings of your choice (e.g., maple syrup, fresh berries, vegan whipped cream)
**Instructions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
2. Add the shredded carrots, chopped walnuts, and raisins to the flour mixture. Toss them together until the carrots and nuts are evenly distributed.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay in the batter.
5. Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer’s instructions. Once hot, grease the waffle iron with vegan butter or oil.
6. Ladle the batter onto the waffle iron, spreading it out slightly with a spatula. Close the lid and cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions, usually for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
7. Carefully remove the waffle from the iron and repeat with the remaining batter.
8. Serve the Carrot Walnut and Raisin Vegan Belgian Waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as a drizzle of maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dollop of vegan whipped cream. Enjoy!
