Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups buttermilk
  • 8 tablespoons melted butter 1/2 cup
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup corn meal
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2-3 serrano peppers chopped
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For Serving: Maple syrup and Mexican crema

    Instructions

    • In a large mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, buttermilk and melted butter.
    • Add the cheese, serrano peppers and salt and pepper.
    • In a separate bowl whisk together the dry ingredients.
    • Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring just until nearly smooth; it’s OK if it is still lumpy.
    • Spray your waffle iron with a non-stick cooking spray and preheat it according to your model’s instructions.
    • Pour in the waffle mix as needed and cook 2-4 minutes, until cooked to your desired brownness.
    • Remove and set onto a plate. Top with Serrano peppers and serve with maple syrup and Mexican crema.

    Notes

    This makes 6 waffles with my waffle maker, which makes Belgian style, 7 inch waffles that are nice and thick. Your amounts and cooking times may vary, so please follow your waffle iron instructions.
