Savory (Cornbread, Chorizo, Cheddar & Scallion) Waffles

Ingredients

• 1 cup Flour
• 1 cup Cornmeal
• 1 Tablespoon Sugar
• 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
• 1 whole Egg, Beaten
• 2 cups Milk
• 1 cup Chorizo, Grated Or Finely Chopped
• ½ cups Cheddar Cheese, Grated
• ¼ cups Scallions, Finely Chopped

Preparation Instructions

Whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, and baking powder. Add eggs and milk, stir until combined without over-mixing. Fold chorizo, cheddar, and scallions into cornbread batter.

Heat waffle maker to manufacturer’s recommendations, grease if necessary. Pour 1/4-1/3 cup into each section, close the cover and cook for 3-5 minutes until the edges are set. Cool on a wired rack.

Note: If you don’t have a waffle iron, you can easily make these into griddle cakes, or bake in a cornbread pan. If you are going to bake this in the oven, you’ll want the thicker batter so use just half the directed amount of milk.
