Banoffee Waffle

I have not lived in England for almost two years now so my memories of our time there are currently rose coloured:). One of my favourite things to eat at the Coton Orchard was their version of banoffee waffles. I craved these constantly and ate them about once a month. You can leave out the Heath bits and mini chips or sprinkle them on top of the waffle instead of inside it. It will still be yummy. I think this would be a nice breakfast to make for Father's Day. Here's my version:


Waffle Batter mixed from recipe on Bisquick box (I know, kind of lame, but with little kids you have to take all the short cuts you can)
heath bits or mini chocolate chips
whipped cream whipped with 2 t sugar and a drop of vanilla
Smucker's Caramel topping
Hershey's syrup
bananas sliced into circles
chocolate bar to shave with microplane grater

Make your waffles in the waffle maker by pouring 1/3 c or more batter in and sprinkling sparingly with Heath bits and mini chocolate chips (about 5 or less minutes to achieve crispy on the outside, soft on the inside). Put on plate, top with whipped cream, then bananas, drizzle with caramel sauce and chocolate syrup and shave a little chocolate on top.

Thanks for the idea! I will do that for Monsieur soon. By the way, waffle batter is not very long to do : 300g flour, 10g baking powder, 100g sugar, 1/4 liter water, 1/4 liter cream (or half liter milk for the previous two instead), 150g melted butter, pinch salt, and 3 egg yolks and 4 egg whites in snow. Ready. The longest is to separate the eggs white from the yolk without messing it up and whipping the whites to snow. Bon appetit...

YOu are so FRENCH! Even the waffle batter is more complicated and gourmet. I love it!
