Begin by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Add the eggs to the mashed bananas and beat them together until fully incorporated.
Pour the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract into the banana mixture and stir until everything is well mixed.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into it.
Gently mix everything together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined, taking care not to overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
Lightly grease your preheated waffle iron with vegetable oil or spray it with cooking spray.
Pour an appropriate amount of batter into the waffle iron, spreading it out lightly with the back of a spoon to cover the surface.
Close the waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes per batch depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron using a fork or tongs and place them on a cooling rack to maintain their crispness.
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, remembering to grease the waffle iron as needed.
Serve the nut-free banana waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as syrup, fresh fruits, or whipped cream.
