Easy Cornbread Waffles Recipe

IMG_0385

My friend Robyn will attest that I was obsessed with cornbread long before I lived in the South. I remember sending her a souvenir magnet with – you guessed it –  a cornbread recipe on it back when we were in college. That was looong time ago.

When I heard on a recent WDW Radio podcast that Disney’s Landscape of Flavors now serves pulled pork with cornbread waffles, I wondered why I hadn’t thought of this before!

Cornbread AND waffles!?! Seems like the perfect Southern food mash-up to me.

So of course I immediately got my waffle iron out and gave it a try. I used a cheap box of Jiffy cornbread mix and followed the directions on the box (add one egg and 1/3 cup milk).

The batter seemed too thick to me so I added a tablespoon of melted butter and few more splashes of milk.

The result? Cornbread nirvana (as far as I can tell). They were crispy yet fluffy and retained the amazing cornbread texture that is near and dear to my heart.

We had them for dinner with Carolina-style Pork Barbeque and coleslaw and it was amazing. 

Then a few days later we had them for breakfast. I didn’t feel that they needed any butter or syrup because they were so good by themselves.

The box of cornbread mix cost me around $0.50 so they are about as frugal as it gets. Hope you try them out and please leave a comment if you do!
