Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon apple pie spice
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 3/4 cups buttermilk, at room temperature
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly, plus more for the waffle iron
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 very ripe banana, mashed
Warmed honey, sliced bananas and chopped peanuts, for serving
Directions
- Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, apple pie spice and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk and eggs in a medium bowl until well blended and then whisk in the melted butter, vanilla and mashed banana. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until just combined with a few lumps. Set aside for 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high. Lightly brush the top and bottom of the waffle iron with butter.
- Fill each waffle indent about three-quarters full. Close the lid gently and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Repeat with additional butter and the remaining batter, keeping the cooked waffles warm in the oven until ready to serve.
- Serve the waffles topped with warmed honey, sliced banana and chopped peanuts.

Cook’s Note
When measuring flour, we spoon it into a dry measuring cup and level off the excess. (Scooping directly from the bag compacts the flour, resulting in dry baked goods.)
