These waffles are acceptably crunchy, very easy and really tasty.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour - I used all-purpose and spelt
• 2 tbsp Better Than Milk Powder
• 3 tbsp sugar
• 4 tsp baking powder
• dash cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 3/4 cup water
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• about 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 banana

Instructions:

1. Mix together dry ingredients.
2. Mash banana.
3. Add banana to oil, water and vanilla.
4. When waffle iron is heated, mix dry and wet ingredients together.
5. Bake according to waffle maker's instructions.

Notes:

• slightly modified from this recipe.
• I like to let waffles cool for a minute or so on a wire rack (nice time to slather on the Earth Balance) - this allows them to get a little crunchier before adding syrup.
• Next time, I may make 1 1/2 times this recipe - and maybe substitute apple sauce for the needed half banana.
