Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar

- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- chocolate sauce for drizzling homemade or store bought
Instructions
- Heat a waffle iron on high heat and preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit for warming.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- In a small bowl, combine the oil and milk. (If using coconut oil, melt in the microwave for 30 seconds or until it is lukewarm). Whisk in the mashed bananas, egg, and vanilla extract.
