Chocolate Espresso Waffles with Caramelized Bananas

Serves 2

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE WAFFLES

1/2 cup coconut oil, melted and cooled slightly

1/2 cup coconut sugar

2 eggs

1/2 cup almond milk

1 1/2 tablespoons instant coffee or espresso powder

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 1/4 cups almond meal

1/2 cup sorghum flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

FOR THE BANANAS

2 bananas, peeled and sliced length wise

2 tablespoons coconut oil

2 tablespoons honey

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

peanut butter for serving

PROCEDURE

FOR THE WAFFLES

Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend on high for 30-40 seconds, until completely smooth.

Preheat your waffle maker then lightly grease with coconut oil. Scoop a heaping 1/2 cup of batter into each quadrant of the waffle maker and close the lid. Cook for 2-3 minutes minutes or until the waffles are crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter.

FOR THE BANANAS

Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bananas, cut side down, and fry for a few minutes. Meanwhile stir together the honey, cinnamon and vanilla. Drizzle the spiced honey into the skillet and allow it to bubble and coat the bananas. Cook for a few more minutes until the bananas are golden brown, then remove from the heat.

Serve the waffles topped with the caramelized bananas, peanut butter and maple syrup.
