Vegan Raspberry White Chocolate Waffles, Whole Wheat

These vegan Raspberry White Chocolate Waffles are the perfect start for the weekend. Whether you’re planning to pull on your hiking boots, cart your kids to the soccer game, drive to the beach, or just waddle around the house in your fluffy pink slippers, these are guaranteed to put a spring in your step and a smile on your face.

What makes these waffles extra special is the fact that they are whole wheat. The vegan white chocolate chips add little pockets of melting sweetness, as do the raspberries– my favorite berry and one reason I so look forward to spring and summer. The raspberry canes in my backyard are beginning to leaf already, and in a couple of months I will be picking up berries by the handful and gorging on them.

Waffles and pancakes are really popular eats around our house on the weekends. Both Desi and Jay love them, and will ask for them. I am a cook who refuses to make anything the same way twice, so I keep trying to find ways to freshen up beloved recipes. These waffles are a riff on my No-Egg Waffles, one of the first recipes I ever posted here at Holy Cow! The plain waffles are delicious with a drizzle of maple syrup, but the raspberries and white chocolate take them to a new level of sublimity.

Serve these topped with more fresh fruit, and some maple syrup. You don’t need a lot because the waffles already have some sweetness from the white chocolate. And then, get ready for the best weekend ever.
