Before I talk about how life changing these Banana Nut Waffles are…..
What a week it has been! As you know my boyfriend recently proposed to me, so I’m a fiance and it’s been so fun to day dream about all wedding madness we are about to subject ourselves to. Baylen said that as soon as he asked me to marry him, my eyes lit up and I said, “Now I get to buy a wedding binder”. If that is not romantic, I know nothing people. So naturally I ordered my wedding binder, and ohh my goodness. There are so many things. Which is exciting, but a little intimidating, but I’m sure we will be just fine. I mean, I have my binder…. right?

Anyways, back to the reason we are all here. Banana Nut Waffles. Just as an fyi: They are grain free. Don’t let that scare you away, they are amazing!
But don’t take my word for it. You definitely need to whip a batch of these banana nut waffles up to be the judge. I’m not always in the mood for sweet breakfasts, but sometimes it’s like the only thing I could ever want in life. And I was having a sweet tooth of a weekend. So basically, give me all the baked goodies.
Here’s another grain-free breakfast recipe!
I tend to use bananas in most of my grain free waffles/pancakes, which lead to the thought…. Why not just have banana flavored waffles? A couple of walnuts later, the smell banana nut waffles took over my whole apartment. And I’m telling you, that is not a bad problem to have.
I topped my banana nut waffles with leftover walnuts and sliced bananas. My guess is that if you added coconut whipped cream… or regular whipped cream for that matter… you would be on to something.
Grain-Free Banana Nut Waffles
Ingredients
- 3/4 Cup Almond Meal
- 1/4 Coconut Flour
- 2 tbsp Arrowroot Starch
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar or sweetener of choice
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- 2 Bananas (one for batter one for toppings)
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 2 tbsp Coconut Oil
- 2 tbsp Walnut, crushed
- 1/2 cup-1 cup choice of milk (you want the consistency to be a loose, amount depends on how much the coconut flour absorbs the liquid)
Instructions
Heat up waffle iron
In one mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients (almond meal, coconut flour, arrowroot, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon) mix with whisk
In separate bowl, smash one banana with a fork
Add eggs, coconut oil, vanilla extract and whisk together
Add wet ingredients to dry and start pouring choice of milk in. I used about 3/4 cup Almond Milk
Mix in crushed walnuts
Once the waffle iron is completely heated, scoop and spread batter
Cook until done!
Slice remaining bananas add on top of waffles along with crushed walnuts
Drizzle maple syrup, agave nectar, or honey on top
Enjoy!
