Ingredients

1 large overripe banana
1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
½ tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
1 cup spinach
2 tbsp oil mild tasting
¼ tsp vanilla extract

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Preheat a waffle iron.
Blend all of the ingredients together until smooth.
Pour the batter into the pre-heated waffle iron and cook according to your waffle maker instructions.
Slice into strips, or serve as is!

Notes

Maple syrup is optional in this recipe, but it adds a nice touch to the waffles. If you are omitting maple syrup, be sure to use an overripe banana to get the most natural sweetness.
I use this nutribullet blender to blend the ingredients into a smooth batter.
Do not overfill your waffle maker with batter. The waffles will rise slightly during cooking and may not cook properly if overfilled.
You may need to spray your waffle iron with a little cooking spray depending on the type of waffle maker you have to prevent sticking. I love using this mini waffle maker or this multi mini waffle maker to small eggo-sized waffles and no spraying is needed!
