Waffles Recipes with Fruit: Bananas, Berries, and Applesauce
I recently decided that fruit is one of my favorite foods.
Not just because I enjoy eating it by myself, but more because of the fact that I think it majorly enhances almost any food:
- I love apples or dried fruit in salads.
- I like my turkey with plenty of cranberry sauce.
- I love bananas, apples, and/or dried fruit in my oatmeal.
- Pork, in my opinion must be eaten with applesauce.
- I even love pineapple on my pizza.
It makes perfect sense that I would create a roundup post of waffle recipes that are all made with fruit.
So, my fellow fruit-lover, enjoy discovering your new favorite waffle recipe!
