Coconut Waffles with Chocolate Maple Syrup and Banana

These wafﬂes have ampliﬁed coconut ﬂavor; there’s toasted coconut both in and on top of the wafﬂes and coconut milk in the batter. The result is a moist, sweet wafﬂe with chewy shreds of coconut in each bite. Sliced bananas and a maple syrup doctored with chocolate are the perfect ﬁnish.

Recipe

1. Preheat the oven to 250°F. Put a baking rack on top of a baking sheet.

2. Whisk together the ﬂour, both types of sugar, baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the milk, eggs, coconut milk, vanilla, butter, and oil in a medium bowl. Add to the ﬂour mixture and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the coconut. Cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

3. Bring the maple syrup to a simmer in a small ovenproof saucepan over low heat, add the chocolate and remaining pinch of salt, and remove from the heat. Whisk until smooth. Keep warm in the oven until serving.

4. Heat a wafﬂe iron according to the manufacturer’s directions. Brush the grates liberally with butter. Fill the iron and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions until crisp and golden. Transfer to the baking rack in the oven to keep warm while you cook more wafﬂes, buttering the grates before each batch.

5. Serve the wafﬂes topped with the bananas, syrup, and a sprinkling of toasted coconut.
