Banana Waffles

• portions: 12 servings
• temps actif: 15 minutes
• temps total: 20 minutes

Ingrédients

2-1/4 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)

2 tablespoons light brown sugar (lightly packed, or granulated sugar)

2 overripe bananas (see note 1)

1 cup whole milk (room temperature)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

4 large eggs (room temperature)

6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled)

Syrup (see note 2)

Sliced bananas (optional)

Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

Prepare

Thoroughly mash 2 overripe bananas and measure 2/3 cup. Set aside. Melt the butter and set aside to cool to room temperature. Warm the milk slightly in the microwave or let it reach room temperature naturally. Run un-cracked eggs under warm water to bring them to room temperature. Make sure all wet ingredients are the same temperature, or batter will get clumpy.

Mix

In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.

Combine

Add brown sugar, mashed bananas, milk, vanilla, and eggs to the dry mixture. Whisk until combined. Continue whisking while slowly drizzling in the melted butter. Whisk until smooth. Don’t overmix. Let the batter sit for 10 minutes.

Cook

Preheat your nonstick waffle maker according to the model’s instructions. Once heated, grease the iron, and add 1/3 cup of batter per cavity. Cook until each waffle is nicely crisped on both sides and cooked through in the center.

Serve

Keep cooked waffles warm in the oven while finishing the batch (see note 3) or serve immediately with your choice of toppings.
