Melt-in-Your-Mouth Banana Oatmeal Waffle Recipe Is Nutritious & Delicious Breakfast Brunch Gluten-free

Always looking for ways to use one of my favorite baking ingredients – overripe bananas – I came up with this easy recipe for banana waffles that uses the bananas right in the waffle mix. The result is a melt-in-your-mouth waffle that is delicious and nutritious.

This waffle recipe can be made with regular flour or gluten-free flour (which I used) for an elegant brunch. You can keep leftovers in the refrigerator for a few days and just pop them in the toaster to reheat for quick on-the-go breakfasts!
