Olive Oil Waffles With Dark Chocolate Sauce

Ingredients

• 1 cup plain flour


• 1½ tsp baking powder


• 4 tsp sugar


• pinch of salt


• 1 egg


• 1 cup milk


• ½ cup J.Olive Butter Olive Oil

• 3 oz dark chocolate


• 2 tbsp maple syrup


• ⅓ cup coconut cream or regular cream


• splash of J.Olive Dark Chocolate Balsamic to thin the sauce


• ice cream, to serve

Directions

1. To make the waffles, place the dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.


2. Add in the egg, milk, and J.Olive Butter Olive Oil, and stir together with a wooden spoon. Don't worry if the batter is lumpy - just don't overmix.


3. Bake the waffles on a medium-high setting on your waffle maker - they should be nice and dark golden brown. They will seem soft at first, but a few seconds out of the waffle maker, they will be crispy!


4. To make the sauce, place all the ingredients into a saucepan and melt together over a very low heat. Thin with a splash of dark chocolate balsamic to taste.


5. Serve the waffles with the sauce, and a scoop of vanilla (or coconut) ice cream.
