Ingredients

  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Cornmeal
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 1.5 cups Buttermilk
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 pieces Large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Honey (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • 0 as needed Cooking spray (for waffle iron)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and honey (if using) until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender waffles.

Step 5

Scoop the batter (about 1/3 to 1/2 cup, depending on your waffle iron's size) onto the preheated waffle iron and close the lid.

Step 6

Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. The time may vary depending on your waffle iron, so follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 7

Carefully remove the waffle and keep warm by placing it on a baking rack in a low oven while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve immediately with your choice of toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fried chicken, or a drizzle of hot honey.
