Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 units large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- non-stick cooking spray or melted butter (for waffle iron)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are okay.
Lightly grease your preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or a brush of melted butter.
Ladle the batter onto the center of the waffle iron (the amount depends on your waffle iron's size; usually about 1/2 to 3/4 cup) and close the lid.
Cook the waffles according to the waffle iron's instructions, typically 4 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Carefully remove the waffle and transfer it to a wire rack to keep it crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or even savory options like fried chicken or eggs.
