Delicious vegan Raspberry White Chocolate Waffles that are also whole wheat. The chocolate and raspberries add little pockets of sweetness.
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 delicious Vegan Waffles, one of the first recipes I ever posted here at Holy Cow! Those 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.

Hi Vaishali, these waffles are delicious. They have been in our breakfast rotation for three months now, since I found the recipe, and the kids are always asking for them. Finally had a chance to leave a comment here.

This blog! I was lucky enough to stumble across your blog when searching for the perfect vegan rice pudding recipe (posted in 2008!) and was ecstatic to see the blog was still alive. After adding to my RSS, I found myself saving every single recipe. Thank you so much for the amazing inspiration. I'm so sorry about your beautiful Opi. I'm dealing with some health issues with one of my 2 aging dogs. Not a happy thing but a necessity as a responsible pet owner. Also, you've totally convinced me I need a pressure cooker so pls start posting those recipes!

Amy, you are so kind! Thank you so much for your encouraging words, and for thinking of Opie. I feel an ache in my heart whenever I think of him, which is many, many times a day. It seems so unfair that we love them so much and they leave us so early. Lots of hugs to your dogs, and wishing you have many more happy, healthy years with them. And oh yes, I am experimenting more and more with recipes cooked entirely in the pressure cooker, so stay tuned. 🙂
