Waffles A La Elvis: A Peanut Butter Waffle Recipe
This peanut butter waffle recipe, which tastes best topped with sliced bananas, is dedicated to Elvis, who loved peanut butter unconditionally. This easy breakfast recipe comes together quickly with just a few simple ingredients.
Equipment
- waffle maker
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup corn starch
- 1 tsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/3 cup oil
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
Instructions
- Heat waffle iron.
- Sift together the dry ingredients (flour, corn starch, brown sugar, baking soda and salt) in a large bowl.
- Add the wet ingredients (buttermilk, oil, egg, vanilla extract, and peanut butter) and whisk together.
- Spray preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray and then pour batter to fill waffle iron (ours needs about 1 cup of batter, but this will depend on the size of your waffle maker). Cook according to manufacturer’s directions until golden brown. Continue with the rest of the batter.
- Remove waffle and top with maple syrup, if desired, and sliced bananas. If you're feeling wild (or Elvis-like, as the case may be), you can throw on some chocolate chips and a little bit of melted butter, too.
Notes
Leftover waffle batter will keep perfectly well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for several days, assuming that neither your eggs nor buttermilk were on the brink of expiration.
If you are making these peanut butter waffles for a crowd (not recommended), preheat oven to 200 F and place cooked waffles on a sheet pan in the oven to stay warm. This may impact the texture of your waffles. When consumed immediately, you will find these to be delightfully crispy and fluffy waffles.
