A Salty, Savory Salmon Brunch Idea

These waffles are crisp on the outside, tender on the inside and filled to the brim with savory, salty, cold smoked sockeye salmon. The savory waffles are a delicious base for a runny egg and lots of fresh dill that makes seafood brunch or a leisurely afternoon lunch an extra special affair. The texture is really what makes these shine, so make sure to cook them until golden brown for that perfect exterior crunch.

If you don’t have smoked salmon in your kitchen right now, you can substitute any variety of cooked, flaked salmon. Alternatively, try substituting hot smoked sockeye salmon for an even more savory waffle.

Ingredients

1 (8 oz). package of cold smoked sockeye salmon, diced
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

1. Preheat waffle iron.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, and sugar.

3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk, whisk in butter.

4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and mix until just combined. Some lumps are perfectly fine. Gently fold in the salmon and dill.
