Instructions

For the butter

  1. Add all the ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth.
  2. Transfer to a ramekin or small bowl, and refrigerate until ready to use.

For the waffles

  1. Preheat a waffle iron. Lightly spray the sections with the nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Add the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt to a large bowl and whisk to combine.
  3. In a separate bowl, add the milk, eggs, yogurt, orange juice, and zest. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients. Stir until combined, but don’t over mix.

For the syrup

  1. Add all the ingredients to a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil for about 30 seconds, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
  3. Simmer until the mixture reduces by about half and thickens a bit.
