Last year (how crazy is that to say!?) for #WaffleWeek I made these Buttermilk Cornbread Waffles. I actually made them twice in back to back weeks. The first time I made them my husband was on a work trip and just knew I had to make them again once he returned. They’re so delicious, they’re something a little different, and they’re quite versatile.
So naturally, I had to make them yet again. But with a twist. Mainly due to ingredient shortages. And it might be even better – though harder to bend in the savory direction.
The new version works best drizzled with honey and served with fresh blackberries.
This recipe will make 6-8 waffles.
