Number Of Ingredients 11

2 egg whites
2 egg yolks
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon chia seeds
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl using an electric mixer on high until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.
  • Whisk flour, cornmeal, chia seeds, baking powder, baking soda, white sugar, and salt together in a bowl.

  • Pour about 1/4 cup batter into preheated waffle iron. Cook according to manufacturer's instructions until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornmeal for the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh cornmeal, you can use store-bought cornmeal, but be sure to check the expiration date.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the waffles tough.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will help the waffles to rise and be light and fluffy.
  • Cook the waffles over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the waffles will burn on the outside before they're cooked through on the inside.
  • Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings. Cornmeal waffles are delicious with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Cornmeal waffles are a delicious and versatile breakfast food. They're easy to make and can be served with a variety of toppings. Whether you like them plain, with butter and syrup, or loaded with fruit and whipped cream, cornmeal waffles are sure to please everyone at the table.
