Southern Pecan Cornbread waffles with bacon and cheese

This recipe was inspired by an obnoxious IHOP commercial. Apparently IHOP offers a bunch of new flavors of waffle. (That's all the information I get before I hit the mute button.) Anyways, one of them involves bacon and cheese. I took this as a personal challenge.


Ingredients:

1. 1 cup of buttermilk pancake mix.
2. 1 cup cornmeal
3. 1/2 cup milk
4. 1/2 cup water
5. Handful of real bacon bits (or you can fry and crumble your own if you wanna get fancy.)
6. Handful of chopped dates
7. Handful of chopped pecans
8. Handful of shredded asiago cheese.



Mix all the ingredients while your waffle iron is heating up. Spray the iron with olive oil each time to get a nice brown and crispy outside.


They are really good with maple syrup, but you can try some other toppings. Some of my favorites are: whole grain mustard, sriracha sauce, red cabbage, ketchup, and jam.

Take that, IHOP!



The End!
