For the waffles:
1 cup white whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
½ cup creamy peanut butter
½ cup sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
½ cup dark chocolate chips
For topping:
1 cup greek or plain yogurt
2-3 teaspoons honey or maple syrup
Sliced bananas
Turbinado sugar, for sprinkling
You can use all-purpose flour in place of the white wheat or use a mixture of all-purpose and whole wheat. For topping, Greek yogurt will be thicker, but plain yogurt, while thinner, tastes just as good.
To make the waffle batter, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter and sugar and mix briskly with a spatula to soften the peanut butter. Whisk in the melted butter, then whisk in the eggs, one at a time, mixing just until smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk, then add the flour. Stir until just combined, then fold in the chocolate chips. Set batter aside for 10 minutes before cooking.
Cook the waffles in a waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Yield will vary depending on size/shape of waffle maker.
To make the topping, combine the yogurt and honey or maple syrup. Adjust taste as desired. Top each waffle with a dollop of yogurt, sliced bananas and a sprinkling of sugar or drizzle of maple syrup.
