Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Stone-ground cornmeal
- 1.5 tablespoons Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 1 unit Large egg
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cup Fresh corn kernels (or thawed frozen)
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, and garlic powder.
Step 3
Add the chopped chives to the dry mixture and stir to distribute evenly.
Step 4
In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg. Add the milk and melted butter to the egg and whisk until well combined.
Step 5
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir the batter until just combined; it should be thick and slightly lumpy.
Step 6
Gently fold in the corn kernels and black pepper into the waffle batter, ensuring even distribution.
Step 7
Lightly grease the waffle iron if needed. Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the hot waffle iron, spreading evenly. Close the lid and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crisp, about 5 to 7 minutes or as per your waffle iron's instructions.
Step 8
Carefully remove the waffle from the iron and repeat with the remaining batter.
Step 9
Serve the savory corn waffles warm with your choice of toppings or sides like avocado slices, poached eggs, or a dollop of sour cream.
