Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1.5 cups buttermilk
- 4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup corn kernels, fresh or thawed if frozen
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly brush or spray it with vegetable oil.
In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Gently fold in the corn kernels until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using about 1/2 cup of batter per waffle or as recommended by your waffle iron manual.
Close the waffle iron and cook according to your waffle iron's instructions or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes.
Carefully remove the waffles and keep them warm in an oven preheated to 200 degrees Fahrenheit while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve the soy-free crispy corn waffles immediately with your favorite toppings such as butter, maple syrup, or fresh fruit.
