Lift your brunch game with a heart shaped waffle maker. Then pack it with all the goodness to start your day on a happy healthful note.
These waffles are made with bananas and oats and I am not kidding - they are delicious. So if you thought your over-ripe bananas were destined for banana bread or smoothies, time to update.
Servings 4
Waffle Ingredients:
1 Cup Rolled Oats
2 Medium Sized Ripe Bananas
1 Egg
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
Berry Jam Ingredients:
500g Fresh or Frozen Mixed Berries
1/4 Cup Room Temperature Water
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1 Tablespoon Manuka Honey
Method:
In a pot over a medium heat, add all of the berries and the water. Stir well to combine.
Turn heat down to low and allow the berries to breakdown into a thick consistency. After about 5-7 minutes, remove from heat, stir through the cinnamon, Manuka honey and vanilla extract.
Set aside.
Add all of the waffle ingredients to a blender.
Blitz until all the ingredients are combined and the consistency is a smooth batter.
If your waffle maker is non- stick omit this step, otherwise lightly line the waffle sections with a small amount of extra virgin olive oil.
Place the batter in the waffle maker and cook for 10 minutes - or until they are just browned and cooked through to the centre.
To serve:
Serve the waffles immediately so they stay warm and fluffy.
Drizzle with a generous amount of the berry jam and fresh berries.
Eat and enjoy or for extra sweetness, drizzle extra Manuka honey over the top.
