Waffled Corn Bread – Absolute Game Changer
Want to know my favorite way to cook cornbread? In a waffle maker. Seriously, it’s quick, easy and you don’t have to heat up your whole oven and kitchen. (A unique way to provide “bread” for Thanksgiving as well!) Even better, it becomes an excellent vehicle for making a child hood favorite.
These gluten-free corn dog waffles are a cinch to make and freeze exceptionally well. Which is perfect for those mornings I oversleep and run late on packing lunch. Oh what’s that? I’m not the only one that happens to? Glad to know I’m not alone.
What Brand of Cornbread Mix/ Hot Dogs Should I Use?
You could use any corn bread batter for these gluten-free corn dog waffles. If you want to make them from scratch, try my favorite recipe from Bette Hagman. However, when the school year gets started and I’m running behind, this Krusteaz Gluten-Free Honey Cornbread mix sure comes in handy. Krusteaz makes regular (non gluten-free) items, which makes me grateful that their gluten free line of products are certified gluten free thru GFCO. Vegetarian? Dearborn Brand as gluten free vegetarian hot dogs at Kroger.
What Kind Of Waffle Maker Should I Use?
I make these gluten-free corn dog waffles in a Belgian waffle maker. A Belgian waffle maker creates these thick strips that are perfect for dipping. These gluten-free corn dog waffles will impress your kid’s friends. (Or your husband’s co-workers, as the case may be. My husband once had a fellow teacher tell him they wish they had a wife like me!) One important note- Make sure that the hot dogs you use are gluten-free. We like Hebrew National (as we are a pork-free household) and Applegate.
Other “Waffled” Recipes
These gluten-free corn dog waffles only touch the edge of what you can do with a waffle maker. Love pizza? Then you should try these gluten-free pizza waffles from My Gluten-Free Kitchen! Make an epic turkey sandwich with waffled stuffing. Or bump your your brunch game with these Hash Brown Waffles from Mama Loves Food. What else do you like to prepare in your waffle maker? (Besides breakfast waffles, of course!)
