Recipe Card
ingredients
- 20 slices Yellow Deli American Cheese
- 1 cup flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Chopped chives
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 4 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Method
Step 1
Preheat your waffle iron and the oven to 200 degrees F. In a medium sized bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, add the chives, buttermilk and eggs and whisk together until just combined. Whisk in the softened butter and grated Parmesan.
Step 3
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, making sure that everything is fully mixed.
Step 4
When the waffle iron is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter to create each waffle (may change depending on your waffle iron). Close the waffle iron and cook for approximately 3 minutes, or until the steam stops coming out from the sides.
Step 5
Use a spatula or your fingers to remove the waffle and repeat until the batter is finished.
Step 6
Place the waffles on a rack and place that rack in the oven to stay warm and crispy.
Step 7
When you have finished using all of the batter, remove the waffles from the oven and heat the oven to broil.
Step 8
Lay out the waffles on a cookie sheet. Place 2-3 slices of Land O Lakes® Deli American cheese (3/4 ounce each) on each of the waffles, making sure to drape them over the edge slightly. Place under the broiler for approximately 1-2 minutes or until the cheese has completely melted. Alternate method: place the sliced cheese on top of each waffle just after it finishes cooking. Create a pressed wafflewich by placing a waffle on top and closing the lid. Slice each wafflewich into 4 equal squares, or serve whole.
