Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 16 (4-inch) Belgian waffles, 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup ground lightly toasted pecans
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 eggs, separated
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup melted butter plus 1/2 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
2 1/2 cups milk
Vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray, for coating the waffle iron
1 cup pecan pieces
1/2 cup cane syrup
4 medium bananas, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices

Steps:

  • Preheat the waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions and preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, pecans, baking powder and salt in a medium mixing bowl and whisk to combine. In another bowl, combine the egg yolks and sugar and whisk until pale yellow. Add the vanilla extract, 1/2 cup melted butter, and milk, and whisk to blend. Combine the egg and milk mixture with the flour mixture and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, about 1 minute. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the waffle batter. Do not overmix.
  • Using a pastry brush, lightly coat the waffle iron with some of the vegetable oil. Pour enough batter into the iron to just barely cover the waffle grid. Close the waffle iron and cook according to manufacturer's instructions, or until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you prepare the remaining waffles.
  • In a saute pan, add the remaining 1/2 cup of butter and the pecan pieces. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pecan pieces are light golden and fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the banana slices and cook until light golden and soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the syrup and bring to a simmer. Serve with the warm waffles.

MAPLE PECAN WAFFLES



Maple Pecan Waffles image

This is a nice light and fluffy waffle--great for overnight guests. Or, make it for dessert and top it with fresh fruit and whipped cream. I found this in My Great Recipes. I didn't have any pecans so I substituted walnuts. For the maple flavoring I threw in a few squirts of maple syrup. If you have any left (might want to double the recipe), wrap in plastic and freeze. To reheat, just put the frozen waffle in the toaster (move over L'eggo My Ego).

BANANA WAFFLES WITH TOASTED PECANS



Banana Waffles With Toasted Pecans image

This recipe is like a cross between crisp waffles and warm banana bread. I like my waffles crispy and the amount of butter in this batter gives these wonderful waffles a nice crisp. Beverage Recommendation: The toasted pecans and the sweet waffles pair nicely with a frothy cafe con leche (steamed milk added to a shot of espresso) or a mug of your favorite java.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h

Yield 16 4" Waffles

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup pecans, lightly toasted (see Step One in directions below)
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups milk
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
3 large eggs, separated
2 large ripe bananas, quartered lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 small banana, sliced into discs for topping
maple syrup, warmed for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° and preheat waffle iron.
  • Place pecans in a pie plate or on a baking sheet and spread out so that they are not touching. Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly toasted and golden. Remove from oven and let cool. Coarsely chop and set aside. Reduce oven temperature to 225°.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, mix milk, melted butter and egg yolks. Slowly stir the liquid into the dry ingredients until JUST moistened - lumps are okay. Fold the 1/2" banana pieces into the batter.
  • In a clean bowl with a hand mixer, beat or whisk the egg whites at medium speed until frothy. Increase the speed to high and beat or whisk until firm peaks form and hold their shape. Sprinkle both sugars in bowl and beat or whisk until the whites are stiff and glossy. Fold the whites into the batter until no streaks remain.
  • Oil, spray or butter the waffle iron. Ladle batter onto each section of the grid rather than placing it in the middle. The grids should be full but not overflowing, or the batter will seep out the sides of the iron when the top is closed. Bake until the waffle is golden, about 6 minutes, depending on the iron. Carefully lift the lid; if the waffles resist at all, they need a bit more cooking time. Transfer the waffle to an oven rack to keep warm. Continue to cook the remaining batter in 3 batches. There should be no need to re-grease the iron between waffles.
  • Place waffles on plates and serve with the toasted pecans, banana slices and warmed maple syrup.
