Savory Waffles (Cheddar & Chive)

Ingredients

• 2 cups Hidden Foods Pancake Mix

• 1 cup milk

• 1 egg

• ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

• 2 tbsp finely chopped chives (plus extra for garnish, optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the waffle iron:
   Plug in and preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease it if needed.

2. Mix the batter:
   In a medium bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, milk, and egg until smooth. Fold in the shredded cheddar and chopped chives, mixing just until evenly distributed.

3. Cook the waffles:
   Pour the batter into the hot waffle maker, using enough to fill the grids without overflowing. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden and crisp. Cooking time will vary depending on your waffle iron, typically 3–5 minutes.

4. Serve:
   Carefully remove the waffles and serve warm. They pair perfectly with fried eggs, sausage, bacon, or even a drizzle of hot honey for a sweet-and-savory twist.

5. Optional garnish:
   Sprinkle additional chives over the top for a fresh finish.
