🛒 Ingredients

✓ 1 cup all-purpose flour
✓ 1/2 tsp instant yeast
✓ 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
✓ 1 whole egg + 2 tbsp egg white
✓ 1/2 cup low-fat milk (warmed)
✓ 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
✓ 1/4 cup evaporated low-fat milk
✓ 1 tsp honey
✓ 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Bloom & Mix Dry: Warm low-fat milk to 110°F. Whisk yeast with 1 tbsp of the warm milk in a small bowl, let sit 5 minutes until foamy. Combine flour, salt in a large bowl.

2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk whole egg + egg white with melted butter, remaining warm milk, evaporated low-fat milk, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.

3. Build Batter: Pour wet ingredients + foamed yeast into dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon until shaggy dough forms (about 1 minute). Do not overwork; some lumps are fine.

4. First Rest (Optional but Recommended): Cover bowl with damp towel, let rest 10 minutes at room temperature. This relaxes gluten and develops subtle tang. You can skip if time-pressed.

5. Prep Filling: While batter rests, melt dark chocolate with almond butter over double boiler or 20-second microwave bursts, stirring until glossy. Slice banana into thin rounds.

6. Preheat Croffle Iron: Heat waffle-croissant maker (or regular waffle iron) to medium-high. Lightly brush with coconut oil. Let heat 2 minutes until water droplets sizzle immediately.

7. First Waffle Cook: Spoon 3 tbsp batter into center of preheated iron. Close lid gently and cook 3-4 minutes until bottom is deep golden and crispy (peek after 2.5 min if uncertain).

8. Assemble & Second Cook: Remove partially cooked croffle. Spread 1 tsp chocolate-almond mixture on one half, layer 4-5 banana slices, fold. Return to iron, cook 2 minutes more until exterior shatters when tapped.

9. Rest & Finish: Transfer to wire rack for 2 minutes (this sets the crunch). Dust lightly with powdered sugar and sea salt flakes. Repeat steps 7-9 for second serving.
