Ingredients

Waffles:

  • ¾ cup All-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup Cornstarch
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Baking powder
  • ¼ tsp Baking soda
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • 1 Egg
  • Nonstick spray

Topping:

  • 4 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 Onion diced
  • 1/2 Green bell pepper diced
  • 1/2 Red bell pepper diced
  • 1 cup Mushrooms sliced
  • 8 oz Deli ham diced
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese shredded
  • 3 Scallions thinly sliced
  • Hot sauce optional
  • 2 cups Grapes

Instructions

  • To make the waffles: in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until just incorporated. Make sure not to over-mix the batter.
  • Heat a waffle iron and grease lightly with nonstick spray. Once hot, add about ⅓ cup of batter to the iron and cook according to your machine's directions. The amount of batter will vary on the type of waffle iron you have. Transfer the cooked waffle to a wire rack, set over a baking sheet and keep warm in a 200°F oven while you continue to make the rest.
  • To make the topping: heat half of the oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add in the onion, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Season with salt and black pepper and cook until the moisture has evaporated and the vegetables have softened and just begun to caramelize, about 5 to 8 minutes. Add the ham and sauté until browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Heat the remaining olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium low heat. Once hot, carefully crack in the eggs one at a time. Cook until the whites have set and the yolks are bright yellow. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.
  • To serve, top each waffle with cheese, the vegetable and ham mixture, a fried egg, and scallions. Drizzle with hot sauce if desired. Serve with grapes.

Notes

Pro Tip - If you do not have a waffle maker substitute store bought waffles.
