My website's image alt attributes are missing when I check through Developer Tools: I see no alt text. But when I check through Ctrl+U or view page source, it is showing alt text.

When I search for these images in Google with the alt text, my website's images are not indexed.

As first, to become sure, whether Google makes indeed notice about your images, make use of "fetch as Google" function in your Search Console.

If on fetching as Google alt are in the place, do the next check: make a site query into Google web search, open cache-version of your page and look into the source code - are altthere in the place?

If both tests are positive - than just wait, make an image sitemap, share it into Search Console, than wait again - you had make doubly sure, that technically everything is ok.

If alt aren't there at fetching as Google - seems to be as @Stephen Ostermiller wrote, they could be delivered by javascript and you should debug, whats wrong with it.
