Can I just say? Yum. I am such a fan of these. Brian listed these as “Very Good”, so you know they are yummy. I adapted this recipe from this website. Their version is a great starting off point for me but I just added a few changes.
6 T brown sugar
1 1/2 C flour (I used whole wheat flour and YUMMMM)
2 1/4 t baking powder
3/4 t salt
9 T chocolate peanut butter
1/3 C butter, melted
1 1/2 C almond milk
3 large eggs
FIRST mix your dry ingredients in one bowl (brown sugar, flour, baking powder, salt) make sure there are no big lumps and its a smooth mix.
NEXT melt up your butter and whisk in the peanut butter together (I tried to stir it normally for a second and the whisk just made life so much easier)
ADD the eggs and the milk to your dry mixture. When that is all nicely mixed THEN add the butter and peanut butter mixture to your main bowl.
Turn on your iron and spray it with a little non stick cooking spray. Let ingredients meld together while the iron heats up.
When everything is heated- add the correct amount of batter depending on your waffle iron. Mine had a handy cup with a “fill” line. I estimate that it’s about 1\3 of a cup. You should be filling your irons most of the way full but not all the way. If you fill ever nook and crevasse with batter, and close the iron, it WILL over flow and ruin your whole life.
They go great with honey, or just plain syrup, even a little powered sugar, but I think they tasted best with nothing on top (for me) Brian thinks syrup enhances most foods so. Fresh fruit is almost a must here. These filled me up so nicely. I think the whole wheat flower is really what makes it filling. It tastes good and these are actually pretty healthy. This batter mixture made me 5.5 waffles. I went ahead and made all the waffles I could and froze the ones we didn’t eat.
