Have you ever gone to scoop out ice cream into a cone only to realize that you forgot or you are out of cones?
It’s annoying, but we are here to help.
Now, you can make your own vegan waffle cones or bowls in the comfort of your own home.
All you need is 7 ingredients and you can have vegan waffle cones in under 20 minutes.
Can I make these vegan waffle cones top 8 allergen free?
The only ingredient in this recipe that is a Top 8 Allergen is flour. You can sub for a gluten free flour.
We have had the best results with one like King Arthur Gluten Free Measure for Measure.
Making this swap will make Top 8 Allergen Free Cones.
Can I prep these vegan ice cream cones ahead of time?
Yes, but not for long. Vegan waffle cones are best served immediately; however, if you store them in an air tight container, you could use them within 24 hours. After that, they get too soft.
What type of appliance do I need?
If the video, we are using the Koji ice cream cone maker.
You could also use a pizzelle maker if you have one of those.
We prefer the ice cream cone maker because it comes with a rolling pin to make it easier to shape.
What if I don’t have one of those appliances?
If you don’t have one of these, you can preheat an oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Spread 3 tablespoons of mixture into a circle on the baking sheet approximately 7 inches wide.
Bake for 8-10 minutes.
Proceed to roll up into a cone.

Homemade Vegan Waffle Cones or Bowls
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon chia seeds (can sub with ground flax seeds)
- 7 tablespoon water, divided
- ⅔ cup flour (sub for GF flour if needed)
- ½ cup vegan sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoon canola oil (sub for melted vegan butter or another neutral oil)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place chia seeds and 6 tablespoon of water into a small bowl. Stir together well. Let sit for 10 minutes until it becomes gelatinous.
- In a bowl, add the flour, sugar and salt. Stir together.
- Once ready, add the chia seed mixture and stir until almost no dry mixture remains.
- Add in the remaining 1 tablespoon of water, oil and vanilla.
- Stir until well combined.
- Heat your ice cream cone maker (see post for instructions if no ice cream cone maker).
- Once heated, add a little less than ¼ cup mixture to the center and spread out slightly to ensure it's in a complete circle.
- Close the machine and cook according to the instructions.
- Once done, quickly but carefully fold into a cone shape with the shaping tool provided. *These are very hot and we prefer to lay on a towel and shape that way so that there is less heat directly on our hands.
- Continue until no batter remains.
For Waffle Bowls
- If you want to make waffle bowls instead of cones, repeat the instructions until you get to the shaping. Place disc in a small bowl and then put a small bowl inside that to hold for 2 minutes until shape is set. See video for visual.
These turned out perfectly! This recipe is a treasure. Thanks!!
yay!!!
I would like to know where does the un-vegan sugar comes from, I’m pretty sure honey is not sugar
In the US, white sugar is often processed through Bone Char. You can read more about it here: https://makeitdairyfree.com/is-sugar-vegan/
Made this using ground flax instead of chia because that’s what I had and used a waffle cone maker. Tasted great! Definitely going to bookmark and make again. I’ve been looking for a vegan waffle cone recipe for a while – thanks for posting this! New to your site but I love it.
So glad to hear that!
