Servings: 8 Waffles

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

¾ cup buttermilk can use milk too
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 count flax eggs 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal + 6 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons avocado oil
1 cup mashed bananas

Instructions

In a large bowl mix together the dry ingredients and set aside.
In another medium size bowl, stir together the wet ingredients.
Add the wet ingredients into the dry mix and whisk it until the batter is smooth. It should have the consistency of pancake batter; neither too thick nor too thin. Few lumps are fine. Don't worry about it.
Preheat the waffle iron and spray it with cooking spray both on the top and bottom part of the mold so that the lid won't stick to the batter when you close it. Make waffles according to the manufacturer"s instructions that come with your waffle iron.
Serve warm banana bread waffles topped with some sliced bananas, chopped walnuts, and maple syrup.

Notes

Substitute all-purpose with your choice of any whole grain flour.
Buttermilk can be substituted with milk and 1 tablespoon of vinegar.

Taste & Texture

These banana bread waffles taste very much like a banana bread. Cornmeal makes the edges crunchy. Though it's optional and you can substitute it with the flour itself, I recommend using it to get that amazing texture when you eat it while it is hot.
