Banana Cinnamon Waffles
(2 servings) Printable Version
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup mashed banana (about 2 medium bananas)
- 2 large egg - separated
- 1 and 1/2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup applesauce (skip cinnamon if using cinnamon applesauce)
- 5 Tablespoons butter - melted
How To Make Banana Cinnamon Waffles
Heat up your waffle iron and give it a thin coat of cooking spray (if directed to do so by your instruction manual).
Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in one bowl. In another bowl, beat together the egg yolks, milk, mashed banana, melted butter and applesauce. Add the dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir until just moistened.
Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form and fold that into the batter mixture.
Pour enough batter to fill two-thirds of the waffle iron. Cook until the edges are crisp and golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
Great advice for almost all waffles:
When you first take a waffle out of the iron, it is usually kind of soft and moist. Store just-made waffles your oven at about 200 degrees F while you make the rest of your waffles. After a few minutes in the oven, the waffles get more crisp on the outside. Don't let any waffle linger in the oven over 15 minutes.
These waffles have a nice banana flavor that's even better if you top them with additional banana slices and maple syrup.
Mr Breakfast would like to thank Checkers for this recipe.

Anyone know the calorie count? I used strawberries for topping. Very good.

My family was split on this one so I'm giving it 4 golden eggs. I made it almost as directed (I never separate my eggs for waffles) and used white whole wheat flour (oh, and I sprayed my waffle iron with coconut oil). I think next time I'll add a bit of vanilla and Pumpkin Pie Spice. Love that there is no added sugar!

That was great! I didn't have any problem with sticking at all and the flavor was excellent. Son and husband couldn't get enough. Good job!

Good stuff! I was worried that it might need butter but they were great. The apple sauce made them moist and there was lots of banana flavor and they were still pretty fluffy.

I know that this recipe has no butter or oil (cool), but I would really recommend stirring 1/4 cup of melted butter into the batter at the end just so the waffles don't stick to the waffle maker.

Nice for a change. Banana taste is not too strong, cinnamon smells great while cooking. Like the "no added sugar & oil", but used a lot of spray on the iron. Texture was a little softer than what we are used to, but still yummy.

I found that the waffles were very easy to make, just spray your waffle maker with cooking spray prior to cooking and you will have no problems. there is no oil called for in the recipe so if you don't spray then "HELLO THEY ARE GOING TO STICK". I also added about 1 TBSP of vanilla very good. My 2 yr old never eats anything to do with bread consistency but he loved these and ate a whole one... lol...

I have been making banana waffles for years... this is really not a good recipe. I tried it when i couldn't find my normal recipe and it was awful. The flavor was bland and it stuck horribly to my non-stick iron (which i have never had to use cooking spray on w/ my other waffles). The waffles never raised properly so they didn't cook properly. I was VERY disappointed and frustrated with this recipe.

Very delicious - spray with cooking oil before using (I didn't have any problems though) really easy to make to - I used my own waffle recipe and just added 3 banana's and a fair bit of cinnamon... Good Stuff!

Awesome stuff, but it feeds more along the lines of 4-5 people in this recipe.

Nice taste, shame about the b****y waffles sticking to the iron and upsetting my wife on our 12th wedding anniversary! P.S. Add milk and flour to make pancakes out of the darn stuff instead.

Really, really, really good. My son wanted to have it with ice cream and bananas for desert after breakfast! Of course, we didn't let him... but it's a great idea I wanted to share... pretty smart for a 5 year old. Thank you for the recipe Mr. Breakfast. Definitely a site we had to bookmark.

Fast quick and basic ingredients. Tasty too - add a non-fat whipped cream face and the kids eat them up.

I didn't think that this recipe was all that great... they seemed to be lacking a certain flavor. I tried adding some vanilla which helped but I didn't enjoy the soft texture of the waffles.
