Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Waffles
These waffles are a beautiful combination of some of my all time favorite flavors: banana, peanut butter, and dark chocolate.
I mean, first off, who doesn’t love waffles? Fluffy on the inside and crisp and golden brown on the outside. They’re always a special treat on the weekends. I’m kind of obsessed and love these banana chai waffles too!
But then you add peanut butter flavor, ripe bananas, and dark chocolate. Ohhh and top with more creamy peanut butter and rich maple syrup. Come on! Basically making all my childhood dreams come true!

Wait, how can these waffles be healthy too?
Because holiday magic, of course! š š
And just a few simple swaps to add fiber, healthy fats, and protein without scarifying flavors. That’s what I’m all about!
First, these banana waffles are refined sugar free. I use one of my favorite alternatives, coconut sugar. I also used coconut oil, which is classified as a super food because it can have a positive impact on your health, such as fat loss and better brain function.

Finally, I used oat flour (which is gluten free) and whole wheat flour (which is full of fiber) instead of regular white flour which is void of any nutrients.
Peanut butter isn’t just delicious – it’s also packed with protein! And in my humble opinion, peanut butter makes everything better!
Finally, I used dark chocolate chips which contain less sugar than regular milk chocolate and full of antioxidants.
So you can indulge this weekend with no guilt! Just deliciousness!

Main Ingredients
- Whole Wheat Pastry Flour. Made from low-protein soft spring wheat so makes a more tender baked good or waffle.
- Oat Flour. Just ground up oats. Can buy it or make it yourself.
- Coconut Oil.
- Coconut Sugar.
- Bananas.
- Peanut Butter Powder. Made from roasted peanuts that have been pressed to remove most of the oil and then ground into a fine powder. Gives you all the peanut butter flavor and protein without all the calories and fat. Yes please!
- Dark Chocolate Chips. I use Enjoy Life.

Equipment Needed.
- Mixing Bowls.
- Whisk.
- Spatula.
- Waffle Maker.

Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes!! That is one reason I just love waffles. They freeze beautifully.
We are actually having friends from out of town this weekend and I have these waffles prepared and waiting in the freezer to be devoured for Sunday morning brunch. That way I can still hang out (and maybe drink a mimosa!) instead of spending my time cooking in the kitchen.
To freeze them, I lined the already cooked and cooled waffles on a baking sheet, making sure each waffle had it’s own separate space and were not touching (that way they do not freeze together). I put them in the freezer for about 4 hours, or until totally frozen. Then I moved them to a ziplock bag and put them back in the freezer. They will stay good for about a month.
On Sunday, to cook the waffles, I will take them out of the freezer and bake them in the oven at 350 degrees for 5-10 minutes, or until warm and crispy again. You can also throw them in the toaster for 3-4 minutes!
Finally, top with peanut butter and maple syrup and breakfast is ready!

Enjoy!
These waffles are my new favorite breakfast treat! They are light, fluffy, crisp, moist from the bananas, rich from the peanut butter, and just plain heavenly from the dark chocolate. I hope you love them too!
