Raspberry Almond Lunch Box Waffles

Today we are talking about a fabulous (colorful) fruit option that holds up really well in the lunch box, and that's berries! Not everything looks appealing after being tossed around

Ingreadient

• 1 ¼ cups whole-wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 ½ cups milk
• 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
• 1 banana (ripe)
• ½ cup raspberries (fresh, and halved)
• ¼ cup almonds (sliced)
• pure maple syrup (for serving)

Step by step

1. Preheat the waffle iron.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Make a well (hole) in the center of the flour mixture and drop in the eggs, milk and melted butter. Stir to combine.
4. In a separate small bowl mash the banana with the back of a fork. Carefully fold the banana into the batter along with the raspberries and almonds.
5. Cook the waffles according to manufacturer directions and either serve warm with pure maple syrup or use the waffle pieces as “bread” to make a cream cheese sandwich for the lunchbox.
