Waffles With Bananas Recipe

Prepare Waffle Batter

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. In another bowl, beat 2 large eggs and add 1 3/4 cups of milk, 1/2 cup of melted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Cook Waffles

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick spray or a little butter. Pour the batter onto the waffle iron, using about 1/2 cup for each waffle. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, about 3-5 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.

Prepare Bananas

While the waffles are cooking, peel and slice 3-4 ripe bananas. You can also lightly sauté the banana slices in a pan with a bit of butter for a warm topping.

Serve

Place the cooked waffles on plates and top with the sliced bananas. Optionally, drizzle with maple syrup, honey, or sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve immediately and enjoy!
