Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup Cornmeal
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Buttermilk
• 2 large Eggs
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 as needed Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, honey, and vanilla extract until well blended.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix. The batter will be thick and slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Lightly grease the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 6

Ladle the batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup batter, depending on the size of your waffle iron). Spread the batter slightly if needed, but avoid overfilling to prevent spillage.

Step 7

Close the waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and place them on a wire rack to prevent sogginess while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 9

Repeat the process, greasing the waffle iron as necessary, until all the batter has been used.

Step 10

Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or yogurt.
