Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 to 3 ripe bananas (mashed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare your bananas: Start by mashing 2 to 3 ripe bananas in a large bowl until smooth. The bananas will add natural sweetness and moisture to the batter, setting the foundation for your waffles.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, ¼ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and ¼ cup of granulated sugar. This mixture ensures even distribution of the rising agents and chocolate flavor.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: Add 2 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, ¼ cup of melted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk everything together until fully incorporated for a smooth batter consistency.
  4. Bring the batter together: Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined to avoid overmixing. Then gently fold in ½ cup of chocolate chips to add molten chocolate surprises throughout your waffles.
  5. Cook your waffles: Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it. Pour batter into the waffle iron, using about ⅓ cup per waffle. Cook until waffles are crisp on the outside and cooked through, usually around 3 to 5 minutes depending on your machine.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Remove the waffles carefully and serve immediately while warm, or keep them warm in a low oven until ready to enjoy your indulgent breakfast masterpiece.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas: The sweeter and softer the bananas, the better the flavor and moisture.
  • Don’t overmix batter: Stir only until ingredients are just combined to keep waffles light and fluffy.
  • Preheat waffle iron well: A hot iron helps form that beautiful crisp crust every time.
  • Add chocolate chips last: Fold them in gently to avoid melting all the way into the batter before cooking.
  • Keep waffles warm: Use a baking sheet in a 200°F oven to keep cooked waffles crisp while you finish cooking the batch.
