Instructions

Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together cornbread mix, buttermilk, egg, and melted butter until smooth. Add cheddar cheese for extra savory flavor if desired.
Cook the Waffles: Preheat a mini waffle maker and lightly grease it. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter into each section and cook for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
Make the Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine honey, butter, maple syrup (if using), and a pinch of salt. Heat over low heat until the butter melts and the mixture is smooth.
Serve: Arrange waffle bites on a platter, drizzle with the warm honey butter syrup, and serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Notes

You can add more shredded cheese or try different types of cheese like pepper jack or mozzarella.

To make them spicy, add cayenne pepper or diced jalapeños to the batter.

For a fruity variation, mix in mashed berries or diced apples before cooking.
