Crispy Cornmeal-Bacon Waffles image

A great Sunday Morning Breakfast. Don't over mix waffle batter; its chemistry resembles that of muffins ratther than that of pancakes, and similar rules apply. The less you beat, the better, and- as with muffin batter- lumpy is better than smooth. It is best to use the batter right after mixing it: baking powder gradually loses its puff power once it has been combined with the wet ingredients.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my waffles didn't turn out crispy at all. They were more like pancakes.

I'm going to try making these waffles with different kinds of bacon next time. I think they would be great with turkey bacon or even veggie bacon.

These waffles are a great way to use up leftover bacon. I always have some in the freezer and it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

I followed the recipe exactly and my waffles turned out perfect! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

These waffles were a bit too dry for my taste.

I'm not a big fan of cornbread, but these waffles were surprisingly good! The bacon really made them.

I made these waffles for brunch this morning and they were a hit! The cornmeal gave them a lovely crispy texture and the bacon added a nice savory flavor.
