Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 large egg

1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

1/4 cup melted unsalted butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Optional toppings: sliced bananas, chopped nuts, maple syrup, whipped cream

Instructions
 

Preheat the Waffle Iron: Begin by plugging in your waffle iron to preheat it while you prepare the batter.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the egg, then add the milk, peanut butter, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and the peanut butter is fully incorporated.

        Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

          Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring they're evenly distributed.

            Cook the Waffles: Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a little oil. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter (or the recommended amount for your waffle iron) into the center of the preheated waffle iron, close it, and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically for about 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown.

              Serve: Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm, topped with your choice of sliced bananas, chopped nuts, maple syrup, or whipped cream for an extra special treat.
