Banana Pecan Waffles with Blackberries
Small whole wheat waffles are shingled on a plate and loaded with sliced banana, toasted pecans and juicy blackberries. A thin ribbon of maple syrup ties everything together, giving each bite crunch, sweetness and a gentle tartness.
Test kitchen note: Toast the pecans in a dry skillet with a pinch of salt until fragrant; salted nuts make the banana taste noticeably sweeter.
Method 6 steps
-
Toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat with a pinch of salt for 3 to 4 minutes, shaking the pan, then set aside.
-
Whisk both flours, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
-
Beat the milk, eggs and melted butter together, add to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined.
-
Preheat and grease a small round waffle iron. Cook about 1/3 cup batter per waffle until crisp and browned, 3 to 4 minutes.
-
Overlap the warm waffles on plates and cover with banana slices, pecans and blackberries.
-
Drizzle with maple syrup just before serving so the waffles stay crisp.
That is the whole pie. Enjoy every slice.
