These corn waffles are a delightful twist on traditional waffles, with a subtle cornmeal flavor that adds a unique touch. The strawberry syrup provides a sweet and fruity contrast, making this breakfast a real treat.
Ingredients: 1 cup cornmeal. 1 cup all-purpose flour. 2 tablespoons sugar. 1 tablespoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1 1/4 cups milk. 2 large eggs. 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted. 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries. 1/4 cup maple syrup. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Cooking spray or additional melted butter for waffle iron.
Instructions: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with cooking spray or melted butter. Pour the waffle batter onto the hot waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until golden brown and crispy. While the waffles are cooking, prepare the strawberry syrup. In a small saucepan, combine the strawberries, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Cook over medium heat until the strawberries are soft and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 5-7 minutes. You can mash the strawberries with a fork for a chunkier texture or use an immersion blender for a smoother syrup. Serve the corn waffles hot with a generous drizzle of strawberry syrup on top. Enjoy your delicious Corn Waffles with Strawberry Syrup!
