Buttermilk Corn Waffle with Berry Syrup image

A summery combination of corn and berries make these rich, crispy-edged corn waffles stand out. They would easily work as savory treats, too, topped with a crab cake or fried shrimp and drizzled with remoulade sauce.

Time 50m

Yield About 8 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup blackberries
1 cup blueberries
1 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1 ear corn, kernels removed
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted, plus more for brushing waffle iron

Steps:

  • For the berry syrup: Combine 1/2 cup blackberries, 1/2 cup blueberries and the syrup in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries begin to pop and the syrup reduces slightly, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining berries. Cover and keep warm.
  • For the waffle batter: Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high if there are settings (but it's ok if there aren't any). Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (to keep cooked waffles warm). Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and corn kernels in a large bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, vanilla, eggs and butter in another bowl. Fold the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's ok if there are lumps).
  • Lightly brush the top and bottom of the waffle iron with butter, then fill each section about three-quarters of the way full (there should still be some waffle iron showing). Close and cook until the waffles are golden brown and slightly crisp, 6 to 10 minutes. Keep waffles warm in the oven or covered with foil on a plate while you repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Drizzle each waffle with berry syrup.

CORNMEAL WAFFLES WITH BLACKBERRY SYRUP

These cornmeal waffles with blackberry syrup are not your typical breakfast waffles. Cornmeal waffles are a little crispier than the standard variety, and the blackberry syrup adds rich, tangy sweetness. The syrup is quite simple to make and is best served warm. Any leftover waffles can be saved in the fridge and reheated in a toaster oven-restoring them to fluffy perfection!

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings (7 to 8 waffles)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour (135 grams)
1 cup yellow cornmeal (123 grams)
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup full fat buttermilk (236 milliliters)
1 cup sour cream (227 grams)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (56.5 grams)
2 large eggs
Cooking spray, for greasing
1 cup fresh blackberries (160 grams)
1/2 cup maple syrup (118 milliliters)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • For the cornmeal waffles: Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Combine the buttermilk and sour cream in a 2-cup measuring cup. Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the buttermilk mixture, melted butter and eggs. Mix until well combined, then allow to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat a waffle iron (to medium-high heat if the waffle iron has a heat setting). Grease the waffle iron with cooking spray. Working in batches, add the batter in 1/2 cup increments or the amount recommended by the waffle iron manufacturer and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a platter or plates.
  • For the blackberry syrup: Put the blackberries and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until simmering, about 1 minute. Mash the blackberries with a potato masher until broken down and their juices are released. Cook until warmed through, about 1 minute. Stir in the butter and lemon juice and serve warm.
  • Serve the waffles with the warm blackberry syrup.
