BUTTERMILK CORNMEAL WAFFLES



Buttermilk Cornmeal Waffles image

*Update - When I posted this recipe I hadn't tried them yet. Since then I have made them a couple of times. In addition to the posted ingredients I like to add 1/2 cup wheat germ, and 1 T vanilla (1 also add whole eggs instead of just egg whites.) They freeze really well. My Mom gave me this recipe but I'm not sure from where... with all the changes, it's mine now!

CORNMEAL WAFFLES WITH BANANA BOURBON SYRUP



Cornmeal Waffles With Banana Bourbon Syrup image

Cornmeal adds crunch and sweetness to these fluffy waffles, which are lightened with beaten egg whites. If you'd prefer a little more fiber, you can substitute a third of the all-purpose flour with whole-wheat or rye flour. The banana bourbon syrup, studded with pecans, makes these waffles sweet enough for dessert. If you do go that route, a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream would not be amiss. Or serve the waffles with some butter, sliced bananas and a drizzle of plain maple syrup for a simple but satisfying breakfast.

Time 35m

Yield About 10 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 14

7 tablespoons unsalted butter, more for waffle iron
1 large ripe banana, peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
2 tablespoons bourbon
1/2 cup maple syrup
50 grams toasted chopped pecans (1/2 cup), optional
160 grams all-purpose flour (1 1/4 cups)
100 grams finely ground cornmeal (3/4 cup)
15 grams sugar (1 tablespoon)
8 grams baking powder (1 teaspoon)
5 grams fine sea salt (1 teaspoon)
3 grams baking soda (1/2 teaspoon)
1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1 cup whole milk
4 large eggs, separated

Steps:

  • Melt 5 tablespoons butter either on the stove or in the microwave. Set aside.
  • In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter until foam subsides. Add bananas in a single layer. Cook, without moving, until undersides are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes; flip and brown other side, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Add bourbon to pan and let simmer until mostly evaporated, about 1 minute. Pour in syrup and nuts; simmer until just heated through. Pour syrup onto the bananas and cover to keep warm (or reheat just before serving).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In a separate bowl, whisk together sour cream or yogurt, milk, melted butter and egg yolks. Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients.
  • In a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks. Immediately fold into batter.
  • Heat a waffle iron and, using a pastry brush or paper towel, lightly coat with melted butter. Cook waffles (using about 1/2 cup batter per waffle) until golden and crisp. Butter the iron in between batches as needed. Serve waffles immediately as they are ready, or keep warm in a 200-degree oven until ready to serve. Serve with banana syrup on top.

EASY WAFFLES

Consider this your new, go-to waffle recipe when you want to start your day off on a sweet note. No fussy steps or unexpected ingredients are required here, which means you can whip these up whenever your cravings hit.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Maple syrup and butter, as desired, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk milk and eggs; pour over flour mixture, and whisk gently to combine (don't overmix). Gently whisk in butter.
  • Following manufacturer's instructions, cook waffles until deep brown and crisp. (For a standard waffle iron, pour a generous 1/2 cup of batter into center, spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges, and close; waffle will cook in 2 to 3 minutes.) Serve warm, with maple syrup and butter, as desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal. Fresh cornmeal will give your waffles a better flavor and texture than cornmeal that has been sitting around for a while.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your waffles tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking. This will allow the cornmeal to absorb the liquid and the batter to thicken. This will help prevent the batter from sticking to the waffle iron.
  • Cook the waffles over medium heat. Cooking the waffles over too high heat will make them brown too quickly and not cook through in the middle. Medium heat will allow the waffles to cook evenly throughout.
  • Serve the waffles immediately. Waffles are best served hot and fresh out of the waffle iron. You can top them with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Cornmeal Belgian waffles are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. They are perfect for special occasions or everyday meals. With these tips, you can make the perfect cornmeal Belgian waffles every time.
