Waffle Date

 

Teddy came over one day with her waffle cookbook and

 mini waffle maker she got for Christmas.

I didn't know there were so many varieties of waffles one could make! 

Seriously, a little gadget like this can cook, not only pancakes,

but chocolate chip cookies, churros, cinnamon buns 

as well as scrambled eggs. hash browns or omlettes 

We made banana bread waffles.

I have a second mini waffle iron, so it did not take long,

but I realized it would also be nice to make them ahead 

and freeze to put in the toaster.

Banana Bread Waffles

1 1/2 cups flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1 cup mashed bananas

3/4 cup buttermilk

2 Tbsp brown sugar

2 eggs

3 Tbsp oil 

Mash bananas, add brown sugar, eggs, buttermilk, oil

Stir in  combined dry ingredients.

Serve with additional sliced bananas, peanut butter or nutella and whipped cream.

This really was so much fun!

After lunch I kept her busy with making school snacks to take home,

and she just kept smiling through each task ... stirring, rolling, scooping, sprinking! 

I love that she loves to bake!
