Peanut Butter Banana Waffles



Thinking about breakfast for dinner? This dish is sure to please! Peanut butter packs your waffles with flavor and protein, and pairs perfectly with nutritious bananas. This is a great recipe to make use of over-ripe bananas. It is a great stand alone meal but can also go great with turkey bacon (as pictured above), eggs, or fruit for a fuss-free dinner. 



What You'll Need:
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1 ripe banana, mashed
1 1/2 cups milk
1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

What To Do:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and brown sugar. Blend the peanut butter, banana, 1/2 cup milk, egg and vanilla in a blender or food processor until mostly smooth. There may be some banana chunks still, but that is fine. (I used the beater on my stand mixer and it worked perfectly) 

Whisk the peanut butter into the flour blend. Add the milk and stir until the batter is smooth. Cook the waffles according to your waffle iron's directions, top with butter, sliced bananas and maple syrup. Serve hot!
