Wild Blueberry Cornmeal Waffles

 

IMG_0717

On a recent sponsored trip to Maine, I learned all about the wildly beautiful, wild blueberry. Ever since, I’ve been experimenting with these antioxidant-filled beauties! My most recent creation was this breakfast delight!

Makes about 8 large waffles

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup stone ground cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 tablespoons butter or coconut oil, melted & cooled slightly
  • 1 large egg
  • ¾ cup 1% milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup frozen wild blueberries
  • 100% pure maple syrup, for serving

Preheat a waffle iron to medium heat (I use a 3 out of 5 on my machine – lower is better to prevent the fruit from burning).

In a medium bowl, mix together flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk melted butter, egg, milk, and vanilla. Fold wet ingredients into dry and mix until just combined; mix in blueberries. Spray waffle iron with cooking spray and prepare waffles – keep in a warm oven until ready to serve.
