Waffles are a staple in American households, and my Healthy Whole Wheat Banana Waffles recipe is an updated, healthier version of the classic. The easy to make waffle batter is made with ripe bananas, applesauce, and whole wheat flour.  The waffles are also a great source of protein as each serving of two waffles comes in at 26 grams of protein helping keep you full and satisfied until lunchtime.  This recipe is great before or after the gym, or on a lazy weekend for brunch.

How to Make Healthy Whole Wheat Banana Waffles

Simply preheat your waffle iron and coat with nonstick cooking spray.

In a medium size bowl, mash banana. Add eggs, milk, applesauce and vanilla extract and whisk together until combined. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, stevia and salt. Beat egg mixture in with the flour mixture until only a few lumps remain.

Carefully spoon the batter onto the pre-heated waffle iron and cook until golden brown. Repeat until batter is finished.
