Maple-Glazed Bananas With Waffles
"This recipe comes from Williams-Sonoma. It is delicious for brunch or scale the servings down to serve 8 for dessert. My addition to this recipe is using green tipped bananas. They are firmer and will hold their shape when cooked. I also tossed in the pecans and have listed them as optional."

GREAT TASTING Waffles !! I did use the rum extract, though. Loved the addition of the cinnamon too, and so easy to prepare too. Made for a perfect breakfast for the 4 of us. Made with recipe#290307, and made for a great combo. Made for Recipe Swap 42. -
Absolutely fabulous! I made it just as written and used the bananas to top buckwheat pancakes. The hearty pancakes were perfect with this delicious and flavorful topping:-) -
I made this for our Sat. supper, and put it on recipe #83324. I cooked the maple syrup and butter with cinnamon no rum flavouring, and added the bananas and cooked only two minutes, then removed, I was afraid that they would go mushy. This made with the nuts and maple syrup is a lot better than the one my grandma makes with brown sugar. She said we will make this recipe always from now on. Who knew you would teach my grandma to cook better than she already does. Thanks for the good recipe, my brother loved it too, he eats a lot of waffles and pancakes.

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
