  1. What you’ll need:
    • 1 1/2 frozen buttermilk waffles, thawed
    • 1 8 oz can crushed pineapple in juice
    • 1/2 cup chopped mango
    • 1 banana, sliced
    • 2 eggs
    • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 tbsp packed brown sugar
    • 1 c granola
    • 1/4 c chopped macadamia nuts
    • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
    • 2 tbsp butter melted
    • 2 tbsp strawberry spreadable fruit
  2. Instructions:
    • Heat oven to 350°F. Break apart waffles into 1- to 2-inch pieces; place in bottom of your state shaped skillet. Drain pineapple, reserving juice in a small bowl; set pineapple aside for later. Gently stir in the bananas and mangoes into juice to coat. With a slotted spoon, place bananas evenly over waffles; discard any remaining juice.
    • In a medium bowl, beat eggs, granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar with wire whisk until blended. Stir in drained pineapple. Pour mixture over waffles and fruit. In another medium bowl, mix granola, nuts, flour, remaining 3 tablespoons brown sugar and the butter until crumbly; sprinkle over top.
    • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes. Drizzle top with heated spreadable fruit.
