How To Make Banana Nut Waffles
It’s so easy to “morph” a simple homemade waffle into something extraordinary. Mix up your favorite waffle batter (homemade or store-bought mix). For each of the banana nut waffles, add a half of a banana (chopped into small pieces), and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon to the batter. Stir to combine these ingredients.
Add 2 Tablespoons of chopped pecans and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract to walnuts to the batter. Mix it all together, and pour batter into an oiled, preheated waffle iron.
Cook the banana nut waffles until they’re fully done and crispy (about 3 1/2 minutes)!
Serving The Banana Nut Waffles
Once each waffle has finished cooking, place it on serving plate. Drizzle with maple syrup (and butter, if desired). Add the other half of the banana (chopped), and additional pecans for garnish (see TIP below). Repeat process for each additional waffle; serve and enjoy!
TIP: The pecans are especially tasty if they are lightly toasted in a dry skillet for 3-4 minutes before adding to waffle.
By simply adding a couple common, fresh ingredients to the batter and the cooked waffle, you’ll end up with “gourmet” tasting banana nut waffles! These waffles are similar to what some well-known restaurants serve but can be made for a fraction of the price!
Why not treat yourself to a decadent breakfast every now and then? I sure hope you’ll give these banana nut waffles a try! Thanks for stopping by, and I invite you to come back again soon for more family-friendly recipes. Take care, may God bless you, and have a wonderful day.
