Savoury Corn Waffles
These yummy savoury corn waffles came to life because I adore the corn waffles with poached eggs from Woolworths Cafe – it’s my go-to breakfast (or sometimes even lunch!) treat. One evening, feeling a bit hungry, I decided to turn this beloved breakfast into a satisfying dinner. So, I jazzed it up a bit by serving the waffles alongside some crispy crumbed chicken and a dollop of spicy sriracha mayo. The best part about these waffles? You can totally make them your own! Toss in whatever you fancy – maybe some cheese, herbs, or chopped veggies. These corn waffles aren’t just about a meal; they’re an open invitation to get creative in the kitchen and make every bite your very own flavorful adventure.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup flour
- 2tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup sweetcorn kernels***
- 2 spring onions, chopped
- 1/4 – 1/2 red onion chopped
- coriander (as much as you like), chopped
- 1 fresh green chilli, finely chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- grated cheese – optional
METHOD:
- Add all dry ingredients to a bowl, then add wet ingredients and mix.
- Add all greens, sweetcorn last.
- Spoon into waffle maker and cook until golden and crispy.
*** NB: When I made this, I used a tin of sweetcorn instead of the 1/2 cup of kernels and it made the mixture a bit too sticky. If you want to use a tin of sweetcorn, it would make really nice sweetcorn fritters!
So now you know, if you are looking for new savoury breakfasts to add to your weekly rotation, these are for you. And for more easy breakfast inspiration go ahead and look into these fried eggs and rosti which easily rank within my top 3 breakfast favourites!
