Turn overripe bananas into a delicious breakfast with these easy Banana Waffles. Crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and packed with natural banana flavor.
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 medium ripe bananas (about 200 g)
- 2/3 cup milk
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mash the bananas with a fork or pastry cutter. Add the milk, eggs, and melted butter, then whisk to combine.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Let the batter rest while preheating your waffle iron.
- Cook the waffles according to your waffle maker’s instructions until golden brown and crisp.
- Serve warm, optionally topped with extra banana slices or your favorite syrup.
Notes
- Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
- Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough waffles.
- These waffles freeze well—cool completely, then store in a freezer-safe bag.
- Reheat in a toaster or oven for best texture.
