Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 Tbsps oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1- 2 Tbsps brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • 2 cups waffle mix

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork until mostly smooth. Add buttermilk, oil, egg, vanilla, and brown sugar. Whisk to combine, making sure to break up the brown sugar. If the mix looks too lumpy, use an immersion blender to smooth it out a bit.
  • Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, and waffle mix to the bowl and gently whisk to combine. You do not want to over mix, some lumps are fine.
  • Cook the batter in your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Mine uses ¾ cup of batter per waffle. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You could use any milk, I just prefer buttermilk in waffles.
  • I used a high protein waffle mix, Kodiak Cakes, but a more basic mix works just fine.
  • Make these pancakes by omitting the oil and cooking in a skillet over a low heat.  Use 1/4 cup of batter and cook about 2- 3 minutes per side.
  • Keep the waffles warm in a low oven, about 200°F, until they are all done.
