There’s no dairy, eggs, or refined sugar in these Vegan Almond Butter Banana Bread Waffles. Make them during any time of year for a delicious, healthy, and freezer-friendly breakfast!
Riddle me this- since bananas are always technically in season, does that mean banana bread is too?
Today we are partnering with Silk, to bring you this fabulous breakfast that is vegan, freezer-friendly, and made with 100% whole grains. For those that can’t do dairy or don’t prefer to eat animal products, then this year-round seasonal waffle recipe is for you! It’s made with Silk’s Almondmilk Yogurt Alternative, which is exactly what it sounds like, almond yogurt! You still get the live, active cultures like dairy yogurt, but without the dairy (or soy!). In 1 cup of Silk’s Almondmilk Yogurt Alternative, you get…
- 6 grams of protein
- No saturated fat
- No artificial colors or flavors
- No GMO’s
- No high-fructose corn syrup
Winner winner waffles are for dinner. Or breakfast. Or lunch.
I find that yogurt with active cultures does wonders for baking. It makes things silky smooth and fluffy. Most of the time yogurt is out of the question for people who can’t do dairy or animal products, but not this stuff! You get the same effect with this stuff.
This is such a great base waffle recipe for flavoring yourself. While almond butter banana is my fav, you can absolutely use other yogurt flavors or fruit to make different flavor combos. We used white whole wheat flour, which is my preference for both waffles and pancakes, almond milk, mashed banana, and drippy almond butter. All the yums.
Topping-wise, don’t go light. Some ideas include: almond butter, yogurt, berries, and maple syrup!

I made these non-vegan (regular eggs, milk, and yogurt) and they still turned out very good! My toddler even insisted that we add chai seeds and raisins, so those were our little add-ons. 🙂 Made a little more than 4 waffles, and they were VERY filling!
Banana bread is FO SHO always in season. As are waffles! Do you think greek yogurt would work instead of the dairy free? 🙂
Hey Nicole! I think it would probably do the trick!
Excellent site, I will always recommend, everything very good here, my congratulations!
These look so cool.
Honestly, I think your presentation is the most compelling thing about the whole recipe – although I’m sure the waffles taste good as well.
