How to Make Cornbread Waffles Or Pancakes

Preheat your waffle iron or griddle to medium heat.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup self-rising cornmeal, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon sugar (adjust to 2 tablespoons for sweeter waffles/pancakes).
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, 1 large egg, and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter.
Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
Lightly grease your waffle iron or griddle. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto each section of the waffle iron or griddle.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Cooking time may vary depending on your appliance.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings. Leftovers freeze well and can be reheated in a toaster or oven.
