I just made these for breakfast this morning for breakfast for the first time. They are easy to make and delicious.
Roasted Banana and
Sour Cream Waffles
3 bananas, peeled
(2 broken into large pieces for the batter, 1 sliced for serving)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream, plus more for serving
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/ 2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/ 8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup whole wheat flour
Cooking spray
Maple syrup, for serving
1.
Preheat your oven to 400*F.
2.
Place the 2 bananas broken into large pieces
and the butter in a small baking dish and roast
until the bananas and butter are a little bit
browned and the bananas are very soft when
you press them with a fork, about 15 minutes.
3. Turn the oven down to 250*F
and heat your waffle iron to tis highest setting.
4. Using a fork or a potato
masher, crush the bananas directly in their baking dish with the
butter.
5. Transfer the mixture to a
large bowl and whisk in the eggs and the sour cream. Whisk in
The baking powder, salt, cinnamon,
and cloves. Stir in the whole wheat
flour. Be careful
not to overmix – just stir it
until everything is combined.
6. Spray your waffle iron with
cooking spray. Add enough batter to your
waffle iron to cover
Most of the surface area (the
exact amount will depend on the size of your waffle iron.)
Close the waffle iron and cook the waffle until the iron has stopped
steaming and the
waffle is golden brown and crisp,
about 4 minutes, but the exact timing will depend on the
heat of the your waffle iron and
the size of your waffle. Transfer the
waffle to a sheet pan
and keep it warm in the 250*F oven
while you repeat the process with the rest of your
batter (spray in between waffles
as needed).
7. Serve the waffles warm with
the sliced banana, extra sour cream, and maple syrup.
