This year I have become fascinated with cornbread – I love it! So why not turn it into waffles?
These waffles are amazing because they have the crunch of the cornmeal, and the consistency of cornbread, but with a twist – a hefty amount of vanilla yumminess. Plus, they have a crispy outside, with a light, airy inside – just like cornbread in a waffle form. Who doesn’t want that?
I simply took a basic cornbread recipe and completely converted it to a gluten and dairy free friendly recipe. It took a couple tries to ensure that it maintained the taste of cornbread, but in a waffle way!
