Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rice flour
- 0.5 cup Cornmeal
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Melted coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 0.75 cup Canned corn kernels, drained
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and ground turmeric. Stir well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix until you have a smooth batter.
Fold in the drained corn kernels and chopped cilantro, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Once preheated, lightly grease the waffle iron with additional coconut oil if necessary.
Pour approximately 1/2 cup of batter (or the recommended amount for your waffle iron) into the center of the waffle iron. Close the lid and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the rice and corn waffles warm, garnished with additional cilantro or serve with vegan butter and maple syrup, as desired.
