Cheesy Cornbread Waffles

This Epic Egg-Topped Morning Meal Features Cornbread-Like Properties

— August 11, 2015 — Lifestyle
From macaroni and cheese to squashed Krispy Kremes, food bloggers have been putting all kinds of unconventional ingredients into waffles -- which now includes cheddar cornbread waffles. Created by the ever inventive Jessica from How Sweet It Is, this recipe makes an epic savory breakfast, especially when the waffles are topped with a fried egg, tomatoes, scallions and chives.

If you want to try these homemade cheddar cornbread waffles with fried eggs, you will need all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, buttermilk, cherry tomatoes, coarsely ground cornmeal, eggs, salt, scallions, sharp white cheddar cheese, sniped chives, sugar and unsalted butter. The semi-crunchy dish also comes topped with a quick cheese sauce made from butter, flour, freshly grated white cheddar cheese and half and half. You will also need a waffle iron.
Trend Themes
1. Unconventional Waffle Ingredients - There is an opportunity for food bloggers to explore more unconventional and unexpected ingredients for use in waffle recipes to create unique culinary experiences.
2. Savory Breakfast Waffles - Savory breakfast waffles represent a trend in which consumers are looking beyond traditional sweet breakfast options for more filling and hearty morning meals.
3. Gourmet Waffle Toppings - There is a trend of elevating waffle toppings beyond the traditional syrup and butter options with gourmet ingredients such as cherry tomatoes, scallions, and chives.
Industry Implications
1. Food Blogging - Food bloggers could possibly take advantage of this trend by creating a new niche of unique and innovative waffle recipes for their readers to enjoy.
2. Breakfast Foods - As more consumers are looking for filling and hearty breakfast meals, the breakfast foods industry can create more savory waffle options to compete with traditional breakfast options.
3. Specialty Food Products - The growing trend of gourmet waffle toppings provides an opportunity for specialty food companies to develop new and creative topping options aimed at the adventurous foodie.
