Banana-Cinnamon Waffles


The original recipe can be found at Cooking Light here

I omitted the flax seed and buckwheat flour (because I didn't have any) and compensated by adding more whole wheat flour.  These are so hearty and delicious.  My kids even liked them!


Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2-1  cup whole wheat flour

2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups fat-free milk $
3 tablespoons butter, melted $
large eggs, lightly beaten $
large ripe banana, mashed
Cooking spray
Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours and next 4 ingredients (through salt) in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk.
Combine milk, butter, and eggs, stirring with a whisk; add milk mixture to flour mixture, stirring until blended. Fold in mashed banana.
Preheat a waffle iron. Coat iron with cooking spray. Spoon about 1/4 cup batter per 4-inch waffle onto hot waffle iron, spreading batter to edges. Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until steaming stops; repeat procedure with remaining batter.
