Ingredients

Banana Walnut Waffles:

For the Cinnamon Bourbon Syrup:

Instructions

Make the Cinnamon Bourbon Maple Syrup:

  • Heat all ingredients in a small skillet and bring to a full boil. Cook at a boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a jar or small pitcher and set aside until ready to use.

Make the Banana Walnut Waffles:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, eggs, coconut milk, almond milk, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract (wet mixture).
  • In a seperate bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and walnuts (dry mixture).
  • Add the dry mixture to the bowl with the wet mixture and stir until well-combined. The batter will be very thick, so if necessary, add a small amount of additional almond milk.
  • Turn on your waffle iron and set it to a medium-low setting (I put my Cuisinart waffle iron on 3).
  • Measure out 1/2 cup of pancake batter and pour it on the center of the waffle iron. Close the lid and wait until your waffle iron indicates the waffle is done (I have a light that turns green. If you don't have a light, cook the waffle for about 1.5 to 2 minutes before checking to see if it's done).
  • Serve waffles with butter, sliced banana, and cinnamon bourbon syrup.

Notes

*You may need a small amount of additional almond milk in order to thin out your waffle batter if you think it's too thick.
