SPICY RICOTTA WAFFLES

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Generous pinch cayenne pepper
1 cup ricotta
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups milk
Salsa, (homemade or store-bought) as an accompaniment
Cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat your waffle iron. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees so you can hold the finished waffles until serving time. Melt the butter and reserve. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper to combine. In a large bowl, beat the ricotta for 1 minute with a mixer until the mixer leaves tracks. Don't worry if it's not completely smooth. Add the eggs and beat for another minute. When the combination is smooth and shiny, add the milk. Turn the dry ingredients into the bowl with the ricotta mixture and whisk gently to combine. Stir in the melted butter. Lightly butter or spray the grids of your waffle iron, if needed. Brush or spray the grids again only if subsequent waffles stick. Spoon out 1 cup of batter for a Belgian waffle maker (or the amount recommended by your waffle maker's instructions) onto hot iron. Spread the batter evenly over the grids with a metal spatula or wooden spoon, stopping right before the edge. Close the lid and bake until pale golden and lightly crisped. Put finished waffles in a single layer on a baking sheet, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep in the preheated oven while you make the rest of the batch.

Time 20m

Yield 3 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup white cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups buttermilk
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 large eggs
Nonstick cooking spray
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/4 cup grated sharp Cheddar
6 slices bacon, cooked until crisp
Special equipment: a waffle iron

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, butter, 1/4 cup of the maple syrup and eggs in a medium bowl until combined. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined.
  • Heat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions. Spray the grates of the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Use a scant 1/2 cup of the batter per grid, close the cover and cook until golden brown or when the steam stops emerging from the waffle iron, about 4 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. The recipe will make 6 waffles.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the Dijon mustard and the remaining 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup in a small bowl.
  • Place 3 waffles on a large baking sheet in a single layer and spread some of the mustard over the tops of each waffle. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top. Place in the oven until the cheese has melted.
  • Arrange one-third of the bacon slices on the cheesy waffles and drizzle with a little more of the Dijon mustard mixture. Top with the reserved 3 waffles. Slice on the diagonal and serve warm.

CORNMEAL WAFFLES WITH BLACKBERRY SYRUP



Cornmeal Waffles with Blackberry Syrup image

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!

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings (7 to 8 waffles)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour (135 grams)
1 cup yellow cornmeal (123 grams)
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup full fat buttermilk (236 milliliters)
1 cup sour cream (227 grams)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (56.5 grams)
2 large eggs
Cooking spray, for greasing
1 cup fresh blackberries (160 grams)
1/2 cup maple syrup (118 milliliters)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice

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.

CORNMEAL AND RICOTTA WAFFLES RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Cornmeal and Ricotta Waffles Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 11

1-1/2 cups ricotta cheese (12 ounces)
2 cups milk
6 large eggs, separated
1/2 cup sugar
2 cups cake flour
1/2 cup fine yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for serving
Pure maple syrup, for serving
Crisp bacon strips, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat an 8-inch square waffle iron and preheat the oven to 200°. In a large bowl, whisk the ricotta with the milk, egg yolks and sugar. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour with the cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients into the ricotta mixture until combined. Stir in the melted butter. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until firm peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the waffle batter until no streaks remain. Coat the waffle iron with vegetable-oil spray and spoon about 1 1/2 cups of the batter onto the waffle iron. Close and cook until the waffles are golden and crisp. Serve the waffles immediately or transfer them to a rack in the oven to keep warm. Serve the cornmeal waffles with melted butter, maple syrup and crisp bacon.

Tips:

  • For the creamiest ricotta, use whole milk ricotta and let it come to room temperature before using.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To make sure your waffles are cooked through, cook them until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  • Serve your waffles immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Cornmeal waffles with bacon, eggs, and creamy ricotta are a delicious and hearty breakfast that is perfect for a weekend brunch or a special occasion. The waffles are light and fluffy, with a slightly crispy exterior, and the bacon, eggs, and ricotta add a savory and creamy touch. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
