Crack in 2 eggs into the dry ingredients.

Add in 60 g of melted and cooled unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Gradually stir in 230 ml of milk to avoid lumps.

Add the mashed banana to the batter and mix until combined.

Place cooked waffles on a wire rack to cool slightly, which keeps them crispy.

Slice 1 whole banana lengthwise for brulee topping.

Sprinkle about 0.5 to 1 teaspoon of sugar on the cut side of each banana slice.

Use a kitchen torch to brulee the sugar on the banana slices until caramelized, or place under a grill if a torch is not available.

Drizzle maple syrup over the waffles and add the bruleed banana slices on top.
