Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 teaspoons granulated white sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 6 tablespoons butter melted
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
- 5 cups chunky chili
Optional Toppings
- sour cream
- extra cheddar
- cilantro
Instructions
- Whisk together the dry ingredients.
- In a smaller bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry, folding together until just combined. Don't over mix -the batter should be shaggy, vs smooth.
- Add in the melted butter, and cheese, folding together gently. Again - don't over mix!!
- Heat your waffle maker. I like to use a high setting (but yours may be different - keep an eye on it!)
- Grease the waffle maker, then add around 3/4 cup of batter for large Belgian style waffles. Use 1/2 cup for the flatter, less deep waffle irons.
- Cook until browned and crispy.
- Top with hot chili, sour cream, extra cheese and a little cilantro.
- Devour!

Notes
- Grease your waffle maker each time with cooking spray (or brush with butter) to ensure your waffle will come out easily!
- Don't overmix the batter, just gently fold together until just combined.
- Refrigerate any remaining batter, but make sure you use it up within a day or so. Even better, just cook all the batter, and freeze extra waffles.
- Store savory waffles in the refrigerator in a zip-lock back, or freeze, seperating the waffles with parchment. To reheat - just place in the toaster or oven for a few minutes until warmed.
- How many waffles does this make? This recipe makes 5 really big waffles, in my Belgian Waffle Maker (the kind with the really deep grooves), but with a smaller, flatter waffle iron, you would likely get a lot more. Which really just means you could snarf 2 and be just fine.
