Close your eyes and imagine the tropics: coconut, mango, lime and peanuts. This waffle is not your usual 'Sunday breakfast' category, but an exciting journey into the flavours of West Africa. In the batter, creamy coconut milk replaces dairy milk, exuding a fantastic scent whilst baking. The topping is a play of freshness and crunch: the meeting of sweet, juicy mango and salty peanuts with tart lime is simply unforgettable.

Instructions

1 ✓

Roast the peanuts in a dry frying pan for a few minutes until fragrant, then chop roughly. Peel and dice the mango.

Tip: Roasting brings out the peanut oils, making the flavour much more intense.
2 ✓

Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and sugar in a bowl.

Tip: Pre-mixing dry ingredients ensures the baking powder distributes evenly and the waffle rises nicely everywhere.
3 ✓

In another bowl, whisk the eggs, add the coconut milk and the lukewarm melted butter. Pour the liquid into the flour and mix until lump-free.

Tip: The fat content of coconut milk results in a thicker, richer batter than cow's milk.
4 ✓

Bake the waffles in a hot, oiled waffle iron until golden brown. Serve with mango cubes, roasted peanuts and a squeeze of lime.

Tip: The acid of the lime 'cuts through' the sweetness of the coconut milk and batter, balancing the flavours.

Recipe FAQ

Why did it stick to the iron?
Due to the sugar content of coconut milk, this batter can be stickier. Grease the iron thoroughly with oil before every waffle!
Can I use tinned mango?
Yes, but the acidity and texture of fresh mango suit this recipe much better.
