Waffles Without Milk - I Test 12 Substitutes [Pics]

 Ever had a craving for waffles, just to realize you’re out of milk? Or maybe dairy isn’t your thing, and you’re looking for a vegan substitute. Luckily for you, there are loads of alternatives to milk that you can use in waffles, ranging from plain water to condensed milk.

For this post, I tried out 12 different ways to replace milk in waffle batter, and I take you through each one in detail.
