These are a delicious savory waffle that can be used as a bed for your favorite chili or meat gravy. They also make a mean sandwich when split in half. The recipe has the instructions for both gluten free and regular. Leftovers can be stored in a sealed plastic bag and toasted as needed. Ingredients:
1 cup cornmeal or 1 cup gluten free cornmeal |
1 cup all-purpose flour or 1 cup all purpose gluten-free flour |
