Banana-Nut Waffles (Gluten-Free And Vegan)

1. 1

   Heat waffle iron.

2. 2

   Beat bananas, milk substitute, oil, and sweetener with a wire whisk or electric mixer.

3. 3

   Stir in flour, baking powder and salt until just mixed. Batter may be lumpy.

4. 4

   Fold in nuts or berries or chocolate chips.

5. 5

   Spray waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour about 2/3 cup of batter onto the center of the iron. Close lid.

6. 6

   Bake about 5 minutes or until steaming stops. Carefully remove waffle and serve with non-hydrogenated margarine (I like Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread) and real maple syrup or honey. Other serving suggestions: spread with peanut butter or top with fresh berries and vegan whipped cream or vegan ice cream.

7. 7

   If you have extra batter, either store it in an airtight container in the fridge for a day or two OR go ahead and cook up some more waffles and freeze them in Ziploc bags. Then toast for a weekday morning treat!
