Banana Bread Waffles Recipe | Accha FM Podcasts

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil adds a subtle flavor while reducing saturated fat.

chocolate chips

🥗Healthier: dark chocolate chips

💰Cheaper: chopped chocolate

Dark chocolate has less sugar and more antioxidants.

walnuts

🥗Healthier: pecans

💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds

Pecans are healthier fats, while sunflower seeds are nut-free.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey is natural, while brown sugar adds moisture.

Preheat your waffle iron.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

In another bowl, beat the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Mash the bananas and add them to the wet ingredients, mixing well.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Spray the preheated waffle iron with cooking spray.

Pour about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of batter onto the waffle iron, depending on its size.

Close the lid and cook the waffles until golden brown and crispy, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Serve the waffles warm with butter, maple syrup, and chopped nuts, or just syrup if preferred.

For variations, consider adding chocolate chips, chopped walnuts, or mashed avocado to the batter.

For gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend.

For dairy-free, swap milk for almond or oat milk.

For vegan, replace eggs with flax eggs (1 tablespoon ground flax seed mixed with 3 tablespoons water per egg).

To store, let waffles cool completely, stack with parchment paper between each, and freeze in a Ziploc bag.
