  • 3 Tbsp. coconut sugar (or sugar of choice)
  • 1 ½ tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • ¼ tsp. salt

  2. In another large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, oil, mashed banana, eggs, vanilla. Whisk together to combine well. 
  3. Add the wet ingredients, including the kefir, to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix well to combine. 
  4. Preheat waffle iron to medium-low heat. Grease with non-stick cooking spray. Scoop batter on to the waffle iron and spread out evenly. The amount of batter will depend on the size of iron.

* May substitute plain yogurt mixed with enough milk to create a ‘drinkable’ yogurt texture for the kefir
