Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rye flour
- 1 cup Cornmeal
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.75 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 cups Buttermilk
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- as needed 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 rye flour, cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and brown sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps in the batter are fine.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a light brush of melted butter.
Pour the recommended amount of batter into your waffle iron (depending on its size) and close the lid. Cook according to the waffle iron's instructions until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, typically 4-5 minutes per batch.
Carefully remove the waffles and place them on a wire rack to prevent them from getting soggy. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of yogurt.
