Eggless Belgian Waffles become unbreakably hard

Eggless Belgian Waffles become unbreakably hard - Brown and White Chocolate Bar on Brown and Black Surface

I am a big admirer of Belgian Waffles and hence have been trying to come up with the perfect recipe to prepare them. However, I cannot use eggs in waffles because majority of my cousins are vegetarian.

My Recipe:

389 gms All Purpose Flour
5 gms salt
12 gms baking powder
14 gms sugar
500 gms milk
50 gms oil
111 gms cornstarch
Vanilla Essence

I took this recipe from a website and later replaced eggs with 2 tbsp flour & water, 0.5 tbsp of butter and baking powder.

The only problem seems to be hardness. Using this recipe, I get crispy waffles but within 2 minutes, one cannot break the waffles because it turns chewy like rubber. I keep my wafflemaker at 200 degrees for 5 minutes. Waffles are quite crisp but not airy I suppose and one cannot break the waffles apart just after 2 minutes.

I would be glad if you may help me out in any way to prepare Eggless Belgian waffles.

Best Answer

Flour, water, butter, and baking powder does not sound like a great egg substitute to me.

Your best option is to just go find a vegan belgian waffle recipe. There are tons of them, and they should be much more reliable than trying to modify an existing recipe.

If you're really set on modifying that one recipe, look for a better egg substitute. There are products specifically designed to act as one, as well as a fair number of other things that will likely work better than what you tried. The problem is, different ones work better in different contexts, and it can take some tweaking to get recipes to work right.

    • Are Belgian waffles supposed to be soft?

    The crunchiness of Belgian waffles, with its soft interior, is one of its favoured aspects. Traditionally, this was a major difference between regular American-style waffles and Belgian waffles. The batter of regular waffles was prepared with baking powder.

    Should Belgian waffle batter rest?

    Be sure to let the batter rest the full 30 minutes, and if they end up resting almost 40 minutes, that's still fine. If you don't let the batter rest, you get a full waffle LESS than if you wait, plus they're more chewy and not as delicious. 30 minutes goes quickly while you're getting the your toppings ready, etc.

    Why are my Belgian waffles soggy?

    1 \u2013 You're Letting Them Sit Too Long Before Eating Them. One of the most likely scenarios is that you're letting the waffles sit for too long before you eat them. Waffles are going to get soggy over time and they won't stay as crispy as when you first took them out of the waffle maker.
