Notes

Tips

Don't over-mix the batter, it's okay if there's some lumps.
If time permits, let the batter sit for an extra 5-10 minutes. It'll make your waffles even fluffier!
Coat your waffle iron with cooking oil spray to ensure easy cleanup.
Keep the waffles warm by placing them on a wire rack lined baking sheet in an oven set to 200F. This will keep them warm and using a wire rack ensures the bottoms won't get soggy.

Serving

Breakfast: Drizzled with maple syrup!
Lunch or dinner: Topped with avocado hot sauce.
Appetizer or snack: Served with chili.

Storage

Store leftover cornbread waffles in an airtight bag or container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
To freeze waffles, let them cool completely, then place in a freezer bag and pop in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Reheating

Whether you're reheating waffles from the refrigerator or freezer, warm in a toaster oven or regular oven for best results. Reheat at 350F for 5-10 minutes or 15 minutes if frozen.
