Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, melted unsalted butter, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are fine.
Fold in the butterscotch chips using a spatula.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick spray.
Scoop an appropriate amount of batter into the preheated waffle iron (adjust according to the size of the waffle iron) and cook according to the iron’s instructions until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, banana slices, extra butterscotch chips, or maple syrup.
