Spelt binds less strongly than regular wheat flour. And if you're looking for a few less-dark vegan and vegetarian jokes (on a site maintained by a vegan), check out vegetus.org. :) Thanks for the input, and I’m impressed that the recipe still worked without putting in another binder such as flax.

This recipe is FANTASTIC! I will never have another white flour waffle again. I made it with almond milk (vanilla flavor, actually) because that's what was in the fridge, and omitted the egg replacer and the nuts. I also snuck in a tablespoon of bourbon- but that's just between you and me. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this recipe. If you are at all skeptical about the vegan label take it from a fellow skeptic... this is a wonderful find. Thanks to the chef!

Spelt waffles can have a wonderfully light texture, but can be a bit more finicky than standard wheat waffles with sticking/binding. However, if you got a good flax/flour ratio right off the bat and sprayed sufficient oil on the grids prior to each waffle, they were probably delicious. I'll actually email you individually with the Heartfelt Banana Spelt Waffles from the GVWC, as they use flax & you can compare. According to a doc on Spectrum's site, they even test for GMO contamination via wind drift, so I'd consider that a reasonable effort. Bonnie,

I can't wait to try them with her. I am adding flax/apricot mixture instead of enerG egg replacer and we are trying the recipe with rice milk . Thanks Bunches for the recipe! I wanted to use up the bananas and try the spelt flour : ) I use spectrum organic Canola it's non GMO right? Hi Dave,

My understanding is that there is indeed a fair amount of genetically-modified canola out there, but there are companies who produce non-GMO oil. (A quick Google search pulled up a few options.) Because there is a range of preferences out there regarding oils, I encourage experimenting with whichever type(s) work best for you. Joshua,

Recommend to use coconut oil (or olive oil) !! Thanks for the recipe! “Canola oil” is 100% genetically-modified.

If one chooses to include egg and/or animal milk in their meals, it is certainly possible to do so. Custard (unless veganized, of course) is hard to beat on that front. Brenda,

I made these today and topped them with a layer of custard, sliced strawberries and whipped cream. I substituted egg for Ener-G powder, 1/4 tsp powdered nutmeg instead of freshly ground nutmeg and pecans instead of walnuts (pecans are not as strong tasting). I made a batch to share with my friends...soo good! Thanks very much:-) Yummy! I made these today and topped them with a layer of custard, sliced strawberries and whipped cream.

I'm glad you enjoyed the recipe, and appreciate your sharing the tip on banana conservation. If you try the original cholesterol-free (and 100% chicken-friendly!) version with egg replacer, I'd love to hear how that turned out as well! -Dave Stacy,

We didn't quite grind the nuts and we used an egg instead of the replacer..... also when our bananas start to go we pop them in the freezer - the mush up nice when defrosted! In the waffle maker for a bit longer then reg spelt waffles but so so so yummy! We poured Nova Scotia maple surup on top! We had these this morning! so so so yummy!!!
