Coconut Waffles with Chocolate Maple Syrup and Banana
Serves 4
These waffles have amplified coconut flavor; there’s toasted coconut both in and on top of the waffles and coconut milk in the batter. The result is a moist, sweet waffle with chewy shreds of coconut in each bite. Sliced bananas and a maple syrup doctored with chocolate are the perfect finish.
Recipe
1. Preheat the oven to 250°F. Put a baking rack on top of a baking sheet.
2. Whisk together the flour, both types of sugar, baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the milk, eggs, coconut milk, vanilla, butter, and oil in a medium bowl. Add to the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the coconut. Cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Bring the maple syrup to a simmer in a small ovenproof saucepan over low heat, add the chocolate and remaining pinch of salt, and remove from the heat. Whisk until smooth. Keep warm in the oven until serving.
4. Heat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions. Brush the grates liberally with butter. Fill the iron and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions until crisp and golden. Transfer to the baking rack in the oven to keep warm while you cook more waffles, buttering the grates before each batch.
5. Serve the waffles topped with the bananas, syrup, and a sprinkling of toasted coconut.

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
Brunch is my favorite meal of the week. I absolutely love it—and apparently I’m not alone. As I’ve traveled around America listening to all the enthusiastic eaters in this country, Brunch is the book you’ve asked me to write.
In New York, where I believe brunch was invented (I could be wrong, but it feels that way since I’ve lived here my whole life), restaurants are filled on the weekends with people drinking mimosas made with cheap sparkling wine and eating some version of eggs Benedict with overcooked poached eggs and neon-colored sauce from a box. They linger, reading the entire New York Times from cover to cover, as people hover over their tables, waiting for them to get up so that they can sit down and do the same exact thing.
People love brunch so much they are willing to endure the epic waits, the often so-so food and drinks, the hoverers. Now that I just don’t get. Why not just invite your friends over and make it at home? The drinks won’t be watered down, the food will be amazing, everyone will be comfortable, and you can keep the party going as long as you like.
You know I always kick things off with a cocktail—and brunch at my house is no exception. Often I set out a Bloody Mary Bar (page 32) so guests can customize their own, from the alcohol—gin or vodka—to the garnishes, which can go way beyond your typical celery. Or you can set out a pitcher of delicious, refreshing Blackberry-Bourbon Iced Tea (page 28). I also like to spice up the must-haves of coffee and tea by serving Spiked Iced Chicory Coffee (page 16) and Coconut Chai Tea Lattes (page 24). Fun drinks keep everyone entertained while I fry up a batch of light and airy Lemon Ricotta Fritters (page 169) with a sauce made from fresh raspberries. Everyone stands around my kitchen island, ready to pounce on the crisp yet fluffy fritters once they are out of the bubbling oil.
I am pretty detail oriented when it comes to brunch. I like a selection of breads, muffins, and sweet buns, such as Pumpkin-Cranberry Scones (page 177), Buttermilk Biscuits (page 154), and my favorite, Blackberry-Hazelnut Sticky Buns (page 158). That combination would make a great brunch bread basket, especially when paired with flavored butters, like Roasted Peach Butter (page 57) or Homemade Cinnamon-Sugar Butter (page 60), and interesting jams and preserves.
My brunch “musts” don’t stop with a custom bread basket. Egg dishes must be cooked with care, sauces hand-whisked to velvety consistencies. If a “Benedict” is your go-to, try my crab cake version with Old Bay hollandaise
on top of Johnnycakes (page 111), or take a trip to the south of Italy by serving up some Calabrian scrambled eggs on bruschetta (page 140). Pancakes should also be light and fluffy throughout with a subtle crust around the top edge. Carrot Cake Pancakes with Maple–Cream Cheese Drizzle (page 74) have become a cult favorite in my family. If waffles are your thing, Gingerbread Pumpkin Waffles with Buttermilk-Bourbon Caramel Sauce (page 89) take the classic to a new level.
Side dishes should never be an afterthought. Bacon should be crisp, of course, and it can even take on another flavor to balance out its intoxicating smokiness. Sometimes I glaze mine with maple and mustard (page 244) and guests ask me for the recipe over and over. They’re always shocked at how easy it is! However, if you’re going to make only one side dish to go with your eggs, you have to try Cast-Iron Home Fries with Roasted Green Chiles and Creamy Garlic Dressing (page 223). These potatoes are addictive and there’s a chance they’ll even steal the brunch show at your house.
Beyond the brunch classics, it’s important to have in your arsenal a few dishes that lean more toward lunch than breakfast. Southern-inspired Fried Green Tomatoes with Shrimp Rémoulade (page 235) are just so satisfying; I love to serve them as a family-style platter. For an egg sandwich that’s several notches up from your classic diner offering, make Country Ham and Fried Egg on Angel Biscuits (page 195). It’s hard to stop at just one.
It’s not quite breakfast and certainly not lunch. It’s a special couple of hours that come only once a week. Brunch . . . savor it! And I look forward to seeing photos of all of your spectacular brunch dishes on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter!

A couple of observations when I first got the book. I love the way it is bound (hardback) and the heavy paper stock it is printed on. I flipped through the pages to find beautiful photographs of the presentations of the finished products. Almost every item is shown with a picture - unlike a lot of cookbooks. It is laid out in a perfect format! First off you have an awesome selection of cocktails for your brunch and most you may have made but he puts a spin on it to make it unique. I really like the section on setting up a serve yourself Bloody Mary and what you need to provide for your guest. At the end of the book he actually puts together a selection of recipes from the book into occasions so it makes it easy to plan your get together with friends.
The book is broken down by topic for brunch foods like pancakes, eggs, pastries/breads, sandwiches, fruits to serve and then savory side dishes. I believe there are around 140 easy to understand recipes in this book. Most of the items call for things you should already have in your pantry, if not they are easy to find at most grocery stores. There is nothing over the top or crazy in this book - it is just a good book for your brunch.
I did notice a few reviews on here mention that a lot of the recipes contained in this book is on his website. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind going to a website to get a recipe for something but having it all together in one book just makes it so much easier. It is beautifully designed and laid out and takes the burden of figuring out what to prepare by giving you suggestions and ideas. I don't really have anything negative to say about the book. I am very impressed overall.
For the everyday cook I think you will really love this book. Again I love the simplicity of it and also the pictures. I have been cooking since I was a little boy and I always use these books as more of a guideline but in this case I think I would follow his suggestions. I'm planning a brunch this spring to be served outdoors and a lot of what I will serve will come directly from this book.
A little more about me any why I love this book: I have a collection of cookbooks (around 50) and I love to try new things and invent my own style by learning from the tried and true champions of cooking. I like simple but delicious foods (no French sauces over poached fish with aspic on the side). I am a geek when it comes to cookware and having all the gadgets and the like. I spend a lot on getting the best quality that I can afford at that time in my life and enjoy what I have. I watch cooking shows more for ideas. I'm not a trained chef and have only taken the random cooking class here and there but my teacher was my Mother who was a wonderful southern cook.
Thanks for reading my review and if you think it is helpful hit the button below! I try to be as honest as I can and review the products that I purchase and point out what I think YOU would like and not like. I'd recommend this book to friends and family!

There are beautiful photos that accompany some of the 140 recipes. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. The ingredients can be found within your own pantry or at your local supermarket. I've made a couple of the recipes thus far (Salted Caramel Affogato, Almond Butter Syrup and Orange French Yogurt Cake) all turned out great and really tasty. I like that your common brunch fare (pancakes/scrambled eggs) are elevated to "show stoppers" like Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes and Tarte Flambe wiith Softly Scrambled Eggs and Goat Cheese. There are a handful of recipes that highlight Flay's interest in spices like chipotle, chile de arbol and piquillo peppers but it doesn't dominate the book. I liked that there was a good balance of indulgent type recipes (Banana Fosters Beignets) and lighter/healthier fare (Tropical Fruit Salad). It has a nice balance of the best of both worlds.
The one negative I have with this book is that there are a lot of duplicate recipes that can be found on the Brunch At Bobby's section on the Cooking Channel website. He does alter some of the recipes so they aren't exactly identical (example: on the website there is a recipe for Spanish Tortilla with Chorizo, Piquillo Peppers and Gurroxta Cheese but in the book there is a recipe for Spanish Tortilla with Chorizo, Piquillo Peppers and Roasted Jalapeno Pesto.) Despite this, I would still recommend purchasing this book as a gift for someone who likes to cook.
