Cornmeal Waffles with Chia Seeds Recipe

Directions

Ingredients :

2 egg whites

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup cornmeal

1 tablespoon chia seeds

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon white sugar

½ teaspoon salt

2 cups buttermilk

¼ cup canola oil

2 egg yolks

Methods :

Step 1

Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl using an electric mixer on high until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.

Step 3

Whisk flour, cornmeal, chia seeds, baking powder, baking soda, white sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Whisk buttermilk, canola oil, and egg yolks together in a separate bowl; stir into flour mixture until batter is smooth. Gently fold egg whites into batter until just mixed.

Step 4

Pour about 1/4 cup batter into preheated waffle iron; cook according to manufacturer's instructions until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
