PALEO WAFFLES

Every Sunday, growing up, my father made waffles.  I believe that his father had done so before him.  I am WAY too lazy for that, but I did make them occasionally, especially during peach season because waffles loaded with fresh peach slices are my favorite.  This is my first peach season since I stopped eating wheat, so I needed to devise a recipe for Paleo waffles.  Here it is:

Ingredients:

3 bananas
3 eggs
1/2 cup almond butter
1/4 cup liquified coconut oil
1/2 Tablespoon baking powder

Directions:

Mash the bananas in a medium sized mixing bowl until they are fairly smooth.  Add the other ingredients and mix until thoroughly blended.  Preheat your waffle iron.  Spray the waffle iron with a healthy oil.  Spoon (I use a small ladle that is just the right size.) enough batter into the waffle iron to cover the grids.  Close the lid and cook for five minutes.  Repeat until all batter is cooked.  There is enough oil in the batter that you will not need to re-grease the iron between batches.  Makes about 6 waffle squares.

Serve with pure maple syrup or fresh fruit.
