Instructions
Whisk the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl.
Whisk the flax egg (flax + water), soy milk, vinegar, vanilla, and earth balance in a separate bowl until combined.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
Preheat a waffle iron and brush with melted Earth Balance butter. Ladle some batter into the iron (about 1/2 cup, depending on your waffle iron).
Cook until golden brown, then transfer the waffle to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven, or stack them on a plate.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
