Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1.25 cups milk
- 2 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup corn kernels, fresh or thawed from frozen
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are okay.
Gently fold in the corn kernels, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Once heated, lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or brush with additional melted butter.
Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the waffle iron, spreading it slightly. The amount will depend on your waffle iron's size.
Close the lid and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp. Follow your waffle iron's instructions for exact timing.
Carefully remove the waffle with a non-stick spatula and place it on a wire rack to keep its crispness while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or even a savory topping like avocado and bacon.
