BANANA WALNUT BUTTERMILK WAFFLES
Soft, springy and moist, sweet with banana and with a crunch too. And almost as importantly- they're super easy to make. I developed this one over the weekend and I'd love to hear some feedback on it. If you're one of the millions of Americans who has a wedding-gift waffle iron sitting unused in a cabinet somewhere, you're going to kick yourself when you find out how EASY waffles are to make. I make mine most weekends and store the leftovers in the freezer... they heat in the toaster oven just like Eggo's do, but they're 100 times better than that Eggo garbage.

Steps:
- Preheat your waffle iron. Always do this first so your iron is good and hot by the time your batter is ready, and you'll have perfect waffles from start to finish.
- Measure all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk to blend well.
- In a large liquid measuring cup, measure the water up to the 1 2/3 cup mark, then pour the vegetable oil the rest of the way to the 2 cup mark. Add your eggs and blend well. Add the vanilla extract, mashed banana and walnut bits and stir again.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, and stir just enough to blend out the lumps. Don't over-stir.
- Brush your waffle iron plates with a little cooking oil. Pour a cup of batter onto the iron and close the lid. (You may need to use less than a cup, depending on the size of your iron of course.).
- I'm using my mother's 40 year old Sears waffle iron, which makes a 9.5 inch square waffle. I set the temperature to just a bit darker than medium and set a timer to count down two and a half minutes just as I'm pouring the batter on the iron. A cup of batter on my iron yields an 8-inch round, four-way-split waffle. That's just a guideline if you have a large waffle iron; so many shapes and sizes are available and the perfect waffle on your waffle iron will require some tinkering with amounts, settings and timing.
- If you can't find buttermilk powder, replace it with the same amount of flour and use milk instead of water as your main wet ingredient. The results won't be as elastic and springy, but it'll still be great. Of course you can always use real buttermilk, just remember to adjust the flour to make up for the lack of buttermilk powder. I've used leftover eggnog as the main liquid in this recipe and the resulting waffles were to DIE for -- and I despise eggnog!

BANANA WALNUT WAFFLES
I love this waffles recipe! They are everything a waffle should be... light, fluffy and a little crisp on the outside. These are a great way to utilize overripe bananas. They are delicious and can be whipped up in no time. These are great with just syrup, but we added sweetened whipped cream, fresh bananas, and walnuts. So good!

Steps:
- 1. Mix the banana, eggs, milk, sour cream and coconut oil in a large bowl.
- 2. Stir in flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix until well blended.
- 3. Stir in walnuts.
- 4. Heat waffle iron, spray, and pour in batter to fill. Close and bake until waffles are crisp, tender, and brown. Serve.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your waffles will be.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your waffles tough.
- Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking will help the waffles to rise and be more fluffy.
- Cook the waffles on a hot griddle: A hot griddle will help the waffles to cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
- Don't overcrowd the griddle: Don't overcrowd the griddle with waffles, or they will not cook evenly.
- Serve the waffles immediately: Waffles are best served immediately after they are cooked, when they are hot and crispy.
