Cheddar Jalapeño Cornbread Waffles combine the sweet and savory flavors of cornbread with sharp cheddar cheese and spicy jalapeños for a unique twist on traditional waffles.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 130 g cornmeal
  • 130 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 240 ml buttermilk
  • 60 g unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
  • 120 g sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 45 g pickled jalapeños, chopped
  • Cooking spray or additional melted butter for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease with cooking spray or melted butter to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until homogeneous.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and honey (if using) until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined; avoid overmixing. Fold in shredded cheddar cheese and chopped pickled jalapeños until evenly distributed.
  5. Spoon approximately 125–160 ml of batter onto the preheated waffle iron, adjusting to the diameter of your appliance. Close and cook until the waffles are golden brown and set, typically 4–5 minutes per batch.
  6. Carefully remove waffles and serve immediately while hot. Enhance with butter, extra cheese, sour cream, or a drizzle of honey as desired.
  7. Complement with fried eggs, crispy bacon, or a spoonful of spicy salsa for a substantial meal.
