Ingredients
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup softened butter
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar (I used light)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanila extract
  • 1-1/2 cup Flour
  • 1/8 cup cornstarch (helps make the outside crisp and inside fluffy)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 medium bananas (two for the batter, one for the topping)
  • 1 cup very coarsely chopped walnuts
Instructions
  1. Put everything but the bananas and walnuts in a blender. Blend on high until everything smooth and creamy.

  2. Next add two bananas (leaving leaving one to slice for the top when serving). Whirl it again. Let some of the bananas stay chunky.

  3. Stir in the walnuts and let sit while the waffle iron heats up. 

  4. We always make Belgium waffles. They have deeper holes and hold more good stuff, but you can use any waffle maker. 

  5. Pour the batter over the hot waffle maker, using just enough to cover the plate.

  6. Close the iron and let cook several minutes. Be careful not to open too soon. They will stick.

  7. Continue cooking until the batter is gone, keeping the co0ked waffles warm in a warm oven, directly on the grate. Putting it on the grate keeps it from steaming and making the waffle soft or soggy.

  8. When you are finished cooking all the batter, serve with sliced banana and a few walnuts on top. Add some maple syrup and indulge!!
