"Belgian Waffles With Glazed Bananas"
The tase is great, very gourmet! I just made it for the 2nd time. My only desire would be to have the texture of the waffles be crisper. They are rather soft when they come off the iron. This 2nd time I transfered them to a wire cooling rack, rather than a plate thinking it would firm them up. But I didn't notice a difference. Any tips?
