Here at Delish, cornbread isn't only a side dish: We've incorporated it into casseroles, holiday dressings, and even jalapeño poppers. For an excuse to eat this staple Southern bread at all hours of the day, we amped up our classic waffle recipe by creating our batter with a homemade cornbread mixture. The result is a hearty yet fluffy waffle perfect for slathering with butter and honey, or any toppings your heart desires!
These waffles can go sweet or savory: top them with butter, honey, or syrup for a simple breakfast, or load them up with fried chicken or chili for a hearty brunch or dinner. Topped with ice cream and fruit, these waffles could even be an after-dinner dessert! Truly, whatever your waffle-topping preference, these cornbread waffles are an ideal base—get creative with them!
