Ingredients 3/4 cup medium to finely ground cornmeal or pinole 1/4 cup chia seeds 1/4 cup oats, ground 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 cup applesauce 1 cup hemp milk 1 tbsp coconut oil 1 tbsp maple syrup 1 tsp vanilla extract Instructions If starting with cornmeal instead of pinole, toast it lightly in a pan over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until it is lightly browned and fragrant. If you are using real pinole, grind in a coffee grinder to make into a fine-textured flour. Preheat waffle iron. Stir together the cornmeal, chia, ground oats, salt, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, mix together the applesauce, hemp milk, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla. (The coconut oil needs to be at warm temperature or warmer to mix, so you may need to microwave it to get it to a liquid state.) Stir the wet ingredients into the dry to combine into a smooth batter. Spray the waffle iron with baking spray even if it is nonstick, and pour batter into hot iron. Follow the directions of your waffle iron, or wait until the iron stops steaming. Carefully remove waffles from iron, re-spray the waffle iron with cooking spray, and repeat. This was enough batter to fill my waffle iron two and a half times, making 5 small waffles.

It can be made into a drink, an oatmeal-like paste, or baked to form a more-portable "cake.....If you don't want to toast your own corn, you can get pinole at Amazon.com. Note: Masa harina is probably more authentic than cornmeal, since that corn has been treated with lime, the way the Tarahumara maize is."
