Since making this recipe for several years it has evolved into a waffle recipe too. So you’ll see notes of what to omit to make it for cornbread waffles. I also use a very simple and easy-to-use [waffle maker|https://amzn.to/3GqMUHB] from Oster that I just love. It’s so great, I’ve bought a few as gifts for people. You have to have the right tools to make cooking fun.
This is also great for corn bread waffles.
Notes
The less time you bake it the more moist it will be. If you want it extra gooey, start checking it at 45 minutes. It should be releasing from the edges of the pan, barely springing back when you touch the middle and a toothpick will come out with a tiny coating of batter. Your oven times may vary though, so check it early rather than later.
Also, you can substitute the Hatch chilies with canned greed chilies, jalapenos, or any other spicy vegetable you prefer.
