Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1¾ cups milk
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ripe banana peeled and sliced
- ½ cup Nutella
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk, oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Preheat your stuffed waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Spread about 1/3 cup batter into waffle maker so bottom grids and waffle divider are thinly but completely covered. Place a few banana slices and a generous dollop of Nutella in the center, being sure to leave a margin around the edges for the batter to expand. Spread additional batter over filling until it reaches the top of the square projections on the waffle tongs.
- Close waffle maker and flip. Cook for 7 to 8 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and cooked through.
- Carefully remove the waffle from the maker. Let it cool for a minute, then garnish with chopped nuts and a dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.
- Continue with the remaining batter, banana, and Nutella until all waffles are prepared.
Notes
- If using a non-stick waffle maker, a light spray of cooking oil before each waffle ensures effortless removal.
- For a less sweet version, reduce the amount of Nutella or substitute with a lighter chocolate spread.
- Experiment with different fruits such as sliced strawberries or raspberries for a tasty variation on the banana filling.
- Serve immediately, or keep warm in a 200°F oven while preparing multiple batches.
