Buttermilk Waffles

You can't beat buttermilk waffles for breakfast covered in blueberry or strawberry syrup. (Actually you can but we'll ignore that point for now.) You can use maple syrup if you want but I can't live without fruit syrup. So what's different about these waffles from all the rest... Well the corn meal gives it a very uniform yellow/gold appearance, it is crisp on the outside and moist on the inside like any good waffle should be. I tried them with semi-sweet chocolate chips to humor the kids and it worked. I just don't like cleaning the melted chocolate remnants from the waffle iron afterward. Enjoy!
