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 gluten free 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.

What Kind Of Waffle Maker Should I Use?

I made these gluten-free corn dog waffles in my Presto Belgian waffle maker.  A Belgian waffle maker creates these thick strips that are perfect for dipping. You could also use this Dash Waffle Maker, that makes square waffles. I love that it has an overflow channel!

Which Brands of Hot Dogs are Gluten Free?

While this list is not exhaustive, these are brands which I mostly trust. While I am not a huge fan of Bar-S, they are safe and offer a cheaper alternative than others on my short list. The first six brands offer beef hot dogs for those looking to avoid pork. For this recipe I used the Nathan’s Uncured Beef Franks.

Nathan’s Famous Hot Dogs
Hebrew National
Teton Waters Ranch
Applegate Hot Dogs
Boar’s Head
Koegel’s
Bar S Hot Dogs
