Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.5 cups buttermilk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup fresh corn kernels or canned corn, drained
- 0.25 cup chopped scallions
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs until completely mixed.
Add the melted butter to the buttermilk and egg mixture, whisking continuously.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; small lumps are fine.
Fold in the corn kernels and chopped scallions gently into the batter using a spatula.
Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or brush with melted butter.
Pour the recommended amount of batter (usually about 1/2 cup) onto the center of the waffle iron.
Close the lid and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. The cook time may vary based on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with desired toppings such as sour cream, butter, or syrup.
