Directions
Step 1
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until evenly mixed.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the whole milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the liquid ingredients are well combined.

Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter.
Step 6
Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron, depending on the size of your appliance (usually about 1/2 to 3/4 cup). Close the lid and cook according to your waffle iron's instructions, generally 5-7 minutes, or until the waffles are crispy and golden brown.

Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining batter.
