Blue Corn Waffles

Directions

In a bowl, mix cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, soda and salt.

In another bowl, mix butter with egg yolks and ¼ cup of melted butter.

Pour liquids into dry mixture, stirring to moisten well.

Whip egg whites until they hold stiff peaks; fold into batter.

Bake in a preheated waffle iron set on medium high heat or in an electric one set at medium high (375 degrees).

Brush grids with melted butter; half fill with batter, spreading slightly.

Close iron; bake until waffle is golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes.

Serve hot with butter and syrup.

Makes about 4 waffles.
