PHOTO CREDIT: TheHealthyMaven.com
Carrot cake is one of my favorite desserts, so I flipped when I saw this gluten-free, vegan version! These waffles are fluffy, moist, and full of that sweet yet spicy carrot cake flavor. We used dairy-free coconut yogurt as a topping with a little shredded coconut and it was just delicious. You could even use whipped coconut milk as a topping if you want! Now, who’s ready to pair this with a mimosa for brunch?
