Cornmeal Wallfles
The crunchy yet airy texture of this waffle is matched by it’s excellent taste.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 5 Tablespoons  vegetable oil
  • 1 cup milk, depending on batter consistency

Preparation

  1. Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir to blend well.
  2. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
  3. Add the eggs and oil. Slowly pour in the milk, mixing constantly until a thick batter is obtained. If you prefer more of a cornbread style waffle, substitute more cornmeal for some of the flour in the recipe. ½ cup of flour to 1 ½ cups of cornmeal is ideal.
  4. Add more milk if necessary to make a thick batter.
  5. Bake waffles according to your manufacturer’s instructions. Enjoy!

Cook’s Note

  • Waffles may be kept warm in a preheated 300°F oven for 5 to 10 minutes but their consistency may change.
  • This recipe should make from 2 to 8 waffles depending on the size of your waffle maker. Refer to your waffle manufacturer’s instructions for specifics.

    We cooked the waffles for breakfast this morning. The cornmeal adds a nice texture. They are quick and easy to make – very little cleanup too!
