Instructions

Preheat your waffle iron AND preheat your oven to 200 degrees.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine corn masa flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, cornstarch, eggs, egg whites, Gold ‘n Soft, vanilla and milk. Mix until all ingredients are fully combined. The mixture will be smooth.
With a spatula, gently fold the blueberries into the waffle batter.
Spray the grids of your waffle iron with cooking spray, or brush the grills with tasteless vegetable oil. Cook the waffles according to the directions for your specific waffle iron.
As you make the waffles, briefly store them in your warm oven. It will crisp them up a bit while evaporating moisture that might cause your waffles to become soggy. This will also keep your waffles warm until you’re done cooking all the waffles and are ready to serve them to your family and eat together.
Garnish your waffles according to preference. Enjoy!

Notes

*Corn masa flour can be found in the Hispanic grocery section of large supermarkets. It can also be purchased at authentic Mexican markets.

**HELPFUL TIP: Cornstarch is like a sprinkle of magic. It makes waffles of any type, regardless of recipe, light and fluffy while reducing sogginess. If you don’t have cornstarch that’s okay, your waffles will still be very delicious!
