A quick and healthy breakfast treat that combines crispy mini waffles with fresh fruits on skewers, drizzled with rich chocolate sauce for a delightful and visually appealing start to your day.
Ingredients
Scale
For the Skewers
- Mini waffles: 8-10 pieces (homemade or store-bought)
- Fresh strawberries: 8 halved
- Banana: 1 large, sliced into 1/2 inch rounds
- Chocolate sauce: 1/4 cup (preferably dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa)
- Wooden skewers: 6-8 inches long, food-grade
Instructions
- Prepare the Waffles: If making homemade waffles, prepare your favorite recipe and cut into bite-sized quarters. If using frozen mini waffles, toast until golden brown and slightly crisp. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Prepare the Fruits: Wash all fruits thoroughly. Hull and halve the strawberries. Peel and slice the banana into rounds approximately half an inch thick.
- Assemble the Skewers: Thread ingredients onto the skewers in an alternating pattern: waffle piece, strawberry half, banana slice, and repeat, leaving about an inch at the end for handling.
- Add the Finishing Touch: Drizzle the skewers generously with chocolate sauce for a rich, sweet touch. Serve immediately for optimal texture and flavor.
Notes
- For an extra flavor boost, sprinkle some crushed nuts or shredded coconut between the layers.
- Use ripe bananas for sweeter skewers.
- If preferred, serve with additional fruit or a side of yogurt for added nutrition.
- Ensure to serve immediately to keep waffles crispy and fruits fresh.
