Waffle Batter

Method

Prepare the Waffle Batter

  1. 1

    Brown the Butter

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Continue to cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter foams and turns a golden brown color, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas. Stir in the browned butter once it has cooled slightly.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.

Cook the Waffles

  1. 5

    Preheat the Waffle Iron

    Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  2. 6

    Cook the Waffles

    Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until golden brown and crisp.

Serve

  1. 7

    Add Toppings

    Serve the waffles warm, drizzled with dulce de leche and topped with fresh fruit.
