Bacon Banana Waffles

This Maple Bacon Breakfast Dish Fuses Two Contrasting Flavors

— September 3, 2015 — Lifestyle
Food blog Bacon, Eggs and Cheesecake has released an unusual breakfast recipe for 'Maple Bacon Banana Waffles.' This flavorful dish blends sweet and smokey ingredients and will appeal to experimental foodies.

In addition to the bacon pieces and mushed banana, these non-traditional waffles also utilize chocolate chips, peanut butter and cinnamon. With such ingredients juxtaposed with the smokey taste of the maple bacon, these banana waffles boast an explosion of unexpected flavors.

As expressed on 'Bacon, Eggs and Cheesecake,' these waffles are not simply topped with regular maple syrup. Continuing the heavy use of banana, 'Maple Bacon Banana Waffles' are topped with banana maple syrup -- which includes sliced bananas, cinnamon and maple syrup which has been simmered until the bananas are soft and the sauce thickens.
