Banana, pecan and chocolate waffles

Recipe by The Baking Addict

Dark chocolate is my favourite kind of chocolate and the Hans Sloane beads really pack a proper chocolate punch. I tried quite a few on their own and had to stop eating them otherwise I wouldn't have enough to bake with! They worked well in this recipe as it provided a rich, dark chocolate taste to the waffles. The beads did not melt completely so you get lovely chunks of chocolate.

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and brown sugar and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, mashed bananas, buttermilk and vegetable oil (if using)
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just mixed.
  5. Stir in the chopped nuts and chocolate beads.
  6. Pour the batter into a waffle mould and bake for approximately 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  7. Serve with fresh fruit and maple syrup or as desired.
  8. (The waffles freeze well and tastes great if you toast them in the toaster)
