Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup cornmeal
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1.25 cups milk
• 2 large eggs
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup corn kernels, fresh or thawed from frozen
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are okay.

Step 4

Gently fold in the corn kernels, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 5

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 6

Once heated, lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or brush with additional melted butter.

Step 7

Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the waffle iron, spreading it slightly. The amount will depend on your waffle iron's size.

Step 8

Close the lid and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp. Follow your waffle iron's instructions for exact timing.

Step 9

Carefully remove the waffle with a non-stick spatula and place it on a wire rack to keep its crispness while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 10

Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or even a savory topping like avocado and bacon.
