Ingredients

• 1 cup Fine cornmeal
• 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 2 cups Buttermilk
• 2 units Large eggs
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Whisk together to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Gently whisk the ingredients together until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; a few small lumps are okay.

Step 5

Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 6

Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron, using about 1/2 cup of batter per waffle (or adjust based on the size of your waffle iron). Close the lid and cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, about 3-5 minutes per batch.

Step 7

Carefully remove the waffles and place them on a wire rack to keep them crispy while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the waffles warm with your choice of toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
