Follow these simple steps to whip up your jalapeno cornbread waffles:

1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the buttermilk and melted butter, stirring until well combined.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing just until incorporated. It’s okay if the batter is a little lumpy.
5. Fold in the corn kernels, jalapenos, and cheddar cheese gently.
6. Grease the waffle iron lightly with cooking spray. Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using about 1/2 cup per waffle or as directed by your waffle iron’s size.
7. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy on the edges, about 5-6 minutes per batch.
8. Remove and keep warm in an oven set to low heat while you finish the remaining batter.

Remember, like my abuela, trust your senses here. The waffles should have a beautiful golden hue and a rich aroma that fills your kitchen.
