If you like light and crispy waffles, these aren’t for you. These are rich, filling, and super satisfying after a good workout. If you want them more light and crispy, you can separate the eggs and fold in the beaten whites at the end.
- 3 eggs
- 1 c milk
- ¼ c butter, melted
- 3 bananas, mashed
- 1 ½ c whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/3 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
Beat eggs in a bowl until thick. Beat in milk and butter. In a separate bowl, mix dry ingredients. Sift into egg mixture and mix well. Stir in bananas. Adjust texture – should be thick but pourable (use milk to thin or flour to thicken). Cook according to waffle iron instructions.
Serve with maple syrup. No need for butter – they are rich enough without it!
Makes about 12 big waffles.
Tip: Freeze any leftovers (in a single layer or with something like parchment or clean milk bags in between layers). To re-heat, toast in toaster. This makes them crisper than the first time around.
