Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Skim milk
- 3 large Egg whites
- 0.5 cup Canned corn kernels, drained
- 2 tablespoons Scallions, finely chopped
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the skim milk and egg whites until well combined and a little frothy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the corn kernels and chopped scallions until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Lightly spray your preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour about 1/3 cup of the batter onto the center of the waffle iron, spreading it slightly with the back of a spoon if needed.
Close the waffle iron and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter, ensuring the iron is sprayed with cooking spray before each batch.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings, such as fresh salsa, a poached egg, or avocado slices.
