Ingredients

  • 260g/9½oz plain flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 3 free-range eggs
  • 425ml/15fl oz full-fat milk
  • 110g/4oz unsalted butter
  • 175g/6¼oz plain chocolate
  • 50g/1¾oz caster sugar
  • 4 bananas
  • 50g/2oz butter
  • 50g/2oz caster sugar
  • 4 scoops vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  • For the waffles, preheat a waffle maker to a medium setting and preheat the oven to 140C/275F/Gas 1. Place a large wire rack onto a baking tray and keep it warm.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder, salt and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl. Whisk in the eggs, milk and butter until well combined.
  • Ladle some of the batter into each well of the waffle maker, close the lid and cook for five minutes, or until golden-brown and crisp. Repeat the process until the batter is used up. Keep the waffles warm on the baking tray in the oven.
  • For the hot chocolate sauce, melt the chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water (ensure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water).
  • In another pan, heat the sugar and 100ml/3½oz water, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil.
  • Stir the sugar syrup into the chocolate until smooth and shiny.
  • For the fried bananas, heat a frying pan until hot, then melt together the butter and sugar.
  • Add the bananas and fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown all over.
  • Place the waffles on a plate and top with chocolate sauce and serve the bananas and ice cream on the side.
