INGREDIENTS:

METHOD:

1. Combine dry ingredients – flour, garlic powder, cayenne pepper and salt and pepper – in a bowl and mix.
2. Pour the almond milk into a large bowl and whisk in the apple cider vinegar. Allow this to sit for 5 minutes until it curdles and creates vegan buttermilk.
3. Take the Chick’n Chunks, lightly dust with the flour mixture, then dip them in the buttermilk until they are coated. Place the chunks in the flour mixture again, firmly pushing the flour mixture into the chunks so they’re thoroughly coated.
4. Place the Chick’n Chunks into a pan with preheated hot oil and cook until crispy and golden brown.
5. Remove from the pan and dry on paper towels.
6. Fry Bacon Style Strips in a pan using 1-2 Tbsp of oil. Remove and dry on paper towels.
7. Mix the almond milk, vanilla extract and apple cider vinegar together in a small bowl. Set aside for about 5 minutes to create vegan buttermilk.
8. In a large bowl, sift the flour, baking powder and salt.
9. Add the sugar, melted butter/oil and buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix the batter until just combined. The batter should be thick and some lumps are normal.
10. Scoop into a preheated waffle machine and cook until steam has stopped escaping from the machine.
11. Remove and serve with Bacon Style Strips and fried Chick’n Chunks. Top with maple syrup.
