  • It is important to use full-fat sour cream for this recipe.
  • Be sure to sift the dry ingredients before adding them to the batter.

  • Substitute plain yogurt for the sour cream to reduce the fat content. Benefit: This substitution will reduce the fat content of the waffles, making them a healthier option.
  • Substitute whole wheat flour for the all-purpose flour to increase the fiber content. Benefit: This substitution will increase the fiber content of the waffles, making them more nutritious and filling.

Cinnamon Waffles Add 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon to the dry ingredients before whisking in the cornmeal. Increase the cornmeal to 2 tablespoons and reduce the flour to 1 3/4 cups. Follow the remaining instructions as listed.



Maple-Glazed Bacon: Crispy bacon glazed in a sweet maple syrup sauce. This salty and sweet combination is a great way to complement the fluffy and creamy texture of the waffles.


Fried Egg and Sausage Skillet: A delicious combination of fried eggs, sausage, and vegetables cooked in a skillet. This savory dish is the perfect complement to the sweet and salty flavors of the maple-glazed bacon. The eggs and sausage provide a hearty balance to the light and fluffy waffles.
