SCALLION CORNMEAL WAFFLES
For many alumni, homecoming week at the nation's H.B.C.U.s - historically Black colleges and universities - culminates with day parties and brunches, where waffles are almost always on the menu. These crispy, savory cornmeal waffles are a weekend must-make and fancier than a pancake stack. They are also the perfect base for berry-jam fried chicken. Use full-fat buttermilk here, and feel free to swap in the oil of your choice. A citrus salad with peanuts and avocado, or crispy tofu, make a lovely accompaniment if you don't eat meat.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, red-pepper flakes and salt and whisk well.
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs well, then stir in the buttermilk, scallions and olive oil. Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients and whisk to combine.
- Heat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and coat the iron with nonstick spray as needed. (Some waffle irons are nonstick and might not need to be sprayed or brushed with fat.) Ladle in about 3/4 cup of batter and heat until cooked through. Waffle doneness is similar to toast: For waffles with more than a few toppings and protein, cook until golden.
- Transfer cooked waffles to a large baking sheet. (The waffles can be made ahead, cooled and stored in the freezer. You can reheat them in the oven at 400 degrees for 5 minutes.)
- Top warm waffles with a piece of fried chicken or crispy tofu, if you like, along with maple syrup. Using a tea strainer, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Using a small melon baller, top with a scoop of berry jam and butter.

CORNMEAL WAFFLES WITH BLACKBERRY SYRUP
These cornmeal waffles with blackberry syrup are not your typical breakfast waffles. Cornmeal waffles are a little crispier than the standard variety, and the blackberry syrup adds rich, tangy sweetness. The syrup is quite simple to make and is best served warm. Any leftover waffles can be saved in the fridge and reheated in a toaster oven-restoring them to fluffy perfection!

Steps:
- For the cornmeal waffles: Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
- Combine the buttermilk and sour cream in a 2-cup measuring cup. Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the buttermilk mixture, melted butter and eggs. Mix until well combined, then allow to rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat a waffle iron (to medium-high heat if the waffle iron has a heat setting). Grease the waffle iron with cooking spray. Working in batches, add the batter in 1/2 cup increments or the amount recommended by the waffle iron manufacturer and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a platter or plates.
- For the blackberry syrup: Put the blackberries and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until simmering, about 1 minute. Mash the blackberries with a potato masher until broken down and their juices are released. Cook until warmed through, about 1 minute. Stir in the butter and lemon juice and serve warm.
- Serve the waffles with the warm blackberry syrup.
WHOLE-GRAIN WAFFLES
Yield makes about 8 waffles
Number Of Ingredients 9
Steps:
- In a large bowl, measure and mix together: 1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour, 1 cup mixed whole-grain flours (such as whole wheat, spelt, cornmeal, rye, or buckwheat), 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon sugar (optional).
- In a large measuring cup, measure: 2 cups buttermilk.
- Whisk in thoroughly: 3 eggs.
- Pour the buttermilk and egg mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just mixed. Pour in: 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted and stir until well mixed. If necessary, thin with more buttermilk: the batter should pour off the spoon. Cook in a preheated waffle iron until crisp and golden.
- To make waffles with regular milk, increase the baking powder to 2 1/2 teaspoons and omit the baking soda.
CORNMEAL WAFFLES WITH BANANA BOURBON SYRUP
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.

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.

Tips:
- For the best results, use a waffle maker that is specifically designed for cornmeal waffles. This will ensure that the waffles cook evenly and have a crispy exterior.
- Make sure the waffle maker is preheated before adding the batter. This will help to prevent the waffles from sticking.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the waffles tough.
- Let the waffles cool slightly before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.
- Serve the waffles with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Cornmeal rye waffles are a delicious and versatile breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be served with a variety of toppings. Whether you are looking for a classic breakfast or something different, cornmeal rye waffles are a great choice.
