Ingredients & Substitutions
Whole wheat flour is a great source of fiber and nutrients. You can substitute it with gluten-free flour or spelt flour if needed. The mashed banana not only sweetens the waffles but also adds moisture and helps bind the ingredients together. If you're allergic to bananas, you can use unsweetened applesauce instead.
Tips & Notes
- •Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
- •Experiment with add-ins like blueberries, chocolate chips, or nuts for extra flavor and texture.
Recipe Variations
- •Add a tablespoon of cocoa powder for chocolate waffles.
- •Use different spices like nutmeg or cardamom for a unique flavor twist.
Storage & Freezing

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make the batter ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the batter the night before and store it in the refrigerator. Just give it a good stir before using, as it may thicken.
What can I use instead of coconut oil?
You can use any neutral oil like canola or avocado oil, or even unsweetened applesauce for a lower-fat option.
