How to make cornbread in the waffle maker
Step 1
Make cornbread batter from scratch using this recipe or make this Jiffy Corn Muffin mix batter.
Step 2
Preheat your waffle iron. Spray the cooking surface with non-stick spray. Pour a small amount of batter into the waffle iron and close the lid.
Most waffle irons have a light that comes on when the waffle is done. Watch for that. Lift the cornbread waffle out and set it on a plate.
Spray the waffle iron again and make the next one. Continue until you are finished.
Making cornbread in the waffle maker is super easy and you are going to love the flavor of the bread.

This came out so good. What a fun way to make cornbread to go with soup in the winter to add a little fun to the meal. Nice to know I can use my waffle iron for more than waffles.
I love this idea! I should use my waffle iron more often!
I love cornbread!! These are so cute and look delish. Can’t wait to try this!

This is a good idea, Shirley! My husband would love it – he loves anything that is waffle-like LOL
I love thin crispy cornbread and can never seem to get it to turn out just right. This idea sounds great,

This is perfect. I was just thinking about making cornbread tonight and I will give this a try. My waffle iron is already out.
Fabulous! Now maybe I’ll actually break out that old waffle iron 🙂 Thank you for the inspiration!
I never heard of this before – such a smart idea! I know my hubby would love to try this, and we do have a waffle iron.
Alrighty! It’s great to be able to use a small kitchen appliance for more than one thing! I think y’all will really enjoy your cornbread cooked in the waffle iron.
Dang! I hate I donated my waffle iron one day when I was on a spring cleaning spree! 🙂 My husband would love this because he doesn’t like thick cornbread. I usually make him hoecakes on top of the stove, but this looks amazing!
Alli, my waffle iron isn’t used twice a year. We like thin cornbread too. The cornbread has a nice flavor cooked in the waffle iron, don’t know why but it does! It’s really tasty!
