No Butter Fluffy Waffles recipe calls for applesauce instead of butter making this a healthy breakfast meal! I love these homemade waffles because they’re so easy to make and so fluffy!

No Butter Fluffy Waffles recipe calls for applesauce instead of butter making this a healthy breakfast meal! I love these homemade waffles because they're so easy to make and so fluffy!

There’s something about Saturday morning that makes everyone want a home cooked breakfast.  For many it’s the time to relax with the family and take a breather from the work week.  As a little girl I always looked forward to Saturday morning breakfast, usually shared with a girlfriend of mine that would sleep over on Friday night. 

As soon as we woke up, we would head downstairs to watch Saturday morning cartoons and wait for Mom to bring in delicious smelling breakfast!  Sometimes it would be cinnamon rolls, sometimes it would be blueberry pancakes and sometimes it would be the fluffy waffles! 

With a craving for waffles I wanted to relive my childhood Saturday mornings so I made these No Butter Needed Fluffy Waffles! I I love “No butter” recipes because how many times have you wanted to make a recipe and went to grab the butter to find out you were either all out or only had a tablespoon left?  It’s happened to me too many times!

No Butter Fluffy Waffles recipe calls for applesauce instead of butter making this a healthy breakfast meal! I love these homemade waffles because they're so easy to make and so fluffy!

Ingredients

Here’s the ingredients you need for these waffles:

  1. 2 cups all purpose flour
  2. 4 teaspoons baking powder
  3. 1 teaspoon salt
  4. 3 tablespoons sugar
  5. 2 eggs
  6. 1 1/2 cup warm milk
  7. 1/3 cup applesauce
  8. 1 teaspoon vanilla

Can I make them vegan?

If you want to go that extra step and make these into vegan waffles, you absolutely can. Just substitute almond milk for the milk, and substitute flax eggs for the eggs.

I love these waffles because they are extra fluffy!  Trust me, you will not miss the butter at all for these!  Whenever I make these No Butter Needed Fluffy Waffles I always make a double batch, one to enjoy right away, and one to freeze for later!

Hope you enjoy this waffle recipe without butter!  Make sure to serve with maple syrup!

      Hey Murrell, if it had a bitter after-taste I would look at the waffle iron (what it’s made out of – including how it’s coated), as well as making sure the baking powder isn’t expired. I’ve never had bitter tasting waffles from this recipe – hope this helps!
