Step up your breakfast game with these Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Waffles! They’re such a treat!

Who’s a fan of banana bread, raise your hand. My hand is up!

Well, when you over buy bananas by accident, you need to not only whip up a classic loaf, but why not waffle it too??

And while you’re at it, add some mini chocolate chips to make them extra special, mmmm k?!

I made these a few weekends back for brunch, and frankly I don’t think I want to eat plain waffles ever again.

Topped with syrup with a side of fresh fruit and I couldn’t think of a better breakfast.

The recipe makes about 10-12 waffles, so I love to freeze the extras (if there are any), in a Ziploc freezer bag, so when the craving hits and I decide to treat myself after a tough early morning workout, I simply break out my toaster and toast away.

The recipe is a combination of less than ten ingredients, with the mini chocolate chips as optional, but highly encouraged! I use my little waffle iron that makes 6-7-inch size waffles.

And today, you folks not only get this yummy recipe, but I’m having a GIVEAWAY!

I’ve been a fan of Michael Laico’s from Michael’s Woodcraft for years. He was actually one of the first virtual friends I made as a food blogger. I found him on Instagram and was totally drawn in by his incredible work with wood.

He’s got some of the most beautiful boards, catchall trays, wine stoppers, ice cream scoops, honey sticks and mirrors. He has made me a few pieces over the years and they’re heirlooms that will last a lifetime. I totally treasure each and every piece.

So when Michael asked if we could do a giveaway together, I jumped at the chance! I knew y’all would love his pieces as much as I do.

The board the waffles are pictured on in today’s post is the most recent board of mine from Michael. It’s walnut and I absolutely love it. It’s fabulous as a prop for the blog, but I also use it as a serving board when I have guests.

For today’s giveaway, Michael made this board ↓ which is a 12-inch round walnut board with a handle and inlays on one side. It’s just beautiful.

The giveaway is open to U.S. residents and to enter you’ll need to follow me @thebeachhousekitchen and Michael @MichaelsWoodcraft on Instagram. Be sure to like the photo on Instagram and in the comments tag a friend. That’s it! Good luck and enjoy the waffles folks!

Another favorite waffle recipe here at the BHK is my Easy Pecan Waffles with Pecan Praline Sauce. Check it out!

A Few Cook’s Notes for Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Waffles Recipe:

As I mentioned above, the mini chocolate chips are optional, but highly recommended.

Make sure your bananas are overripe (very brown) for this recipe.

The cinnamon could also be optional, but I love the taste.

    *Both hands and feet raised!* I absolutely love all things banana bread! Something about that flavor just makes me feel nostalgic, and warm and cozy inside! Needless to say, I would DEVOUR these waffles!!!! They look seriously delicious and quite dangerous, because I’m fairly certain I could eat a stack of 5 (easily) in one sitting! These are definitely going on the MUST MAKE immediately list! Pinned!
    P.s. That board is STUNNING! Love the color of the wood!

    Beautiful handcrafted board from Michael’s Mare, perfectly suited to highlight these totally mouthwatering waffles! I love the ease of waffles and their versatility! SO many different varieties and flavor profiles. It doesn’t get much better than chocolate chip banana bread! And yes to the chocolate chips! :D

      So I picked this recipe based on the ratings. After starting I decided to read the comments to see if there were any additions or suggestions only to find out all the ratings were based on how good it sounded and not from trying it. Needless to say I was a little frustrated and concerned. Well, that was all short lived… these are amazing!!

        So happy you gave them a try Chris! Unfortunately, I don’t have any control over when people decide to share the star rating. I seem to get more comments and photos of recipes people have attempted from my blog over on Pinterest. I wish there was a way I could share them here. Thanks so much for following along and for the five star rating!
