Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1.5 cups buttermilk
- 2 units large eggs
- 0.25 cup melted butter
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup sliced green onions
- 0.25 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the buttermilk and melted butter. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, and chopped fresh cilantro, stirring until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with oil or cooking spray. Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron's instructions for the best measurements). Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the waffles from the iron and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve the savory corn waffles warm, with your choice of toppings or sides, such as additional cheese, avocado, salsa, or a poached egg.
