Instructions
Waffles:
- To make the waffle batter: Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Cream the peanut butter with the sugar until it softens, then pour in the butter. Beat in the eggs one at a time the mixture is completely smooth. You’ll need to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the milk gradually, the mixture will be very wet. Stir in the flour mixture on the slowest speed and mix until just combined Stir in chocolate chips. Let the batter sit for at least 10 minutes before you use it. This is especially important with spelt, as the batter starts out very soupy, but thickens as the grain absorbs the liquid. Cook waffles in a hot waffle iron and serve with Banana Cream.
Banana Cream
- Mash the bananas in a small bowl and sprinkle them with the sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice. Whip cream in a separate bowl until it is stiff. Fold the banana mixture into the whipped cream and serve immediately.

Love the cute waffles! And I'll definitely have to try the banana cream!
Sooo delicious, can breakfast really taste so divine? I ground my spelt and made these this morning. They were great. I kept the mashed banana mixture separate from the cream (so it was sort of like banana syrup and then a dollop of whip cream.) Three cheers for King Arthur and Sisters' Cafe.
I love using spelt flour in anything. It's so good for you and my family can't even tell the difference when I use it.
I love waffles!! These look great too:)
Sarah,
Thank you so much for pointing that out. I had left out a line in the directions. The butter does go in the batter! I have fixed it now! Thanks!
I noticed the melted butter in the list of ingredients, but didn't see it used anywhere in the recipe…is it to grease the waffle iron with or is it incorporated into the batter somehow? Thanks
I love the shape of the waffle! Sounds yummy!
I have a bucket of spelt that I grind every once in awhile for certain recipes. I'm excited to try this one now. Thanks! Hope you enjoyed your time out here.
