Ham Cheese Panini Waffle Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Preheat an 8-inch waffle iron to medium-high heat.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the finely chopped ham and 1 cup (100 G) shredded Gruyère, and toss to coat.
• Add the egg yolks, buttermilk, and vegetable oil, and mix until well combined.
• Add the egg whites to a medium bowl and whip with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, 3-4 minutes.
• Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until incorporated.
• Grease the preheated waffle iron with nonstick spray, then pour a heaping ⅔ cup of batter into the iron, smoothing with a spatula to cover the iron evenly. Sprinkle the top with 2 tablespoons of shredded Gruyère cheese. Close the lid and cook for 7 minutes, or until the waffle is cooked through and golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter and cheese.
• Top each waffle with a pat of butter, a drizzle of maple syrup, and 2 tablespoons of chopped ham, then serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F. Heat waffle iron until very hot. Whisk 1 3/4 cups flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat 3 large egg whites in a medium bowl until medium-soft peaks form. Whisk 3 large egg yolks, 1 cup (2 sticks) melted butter, 1 cup buttermilk, and 3/4 cup soda water in a medium bowl; gradually whisk into dry ingredients. Fold in egg whites. Coat waffle iron with nonstick vegetable oil spray. Pour batter onto iron, spreading it into corners (amount of batter needed will vary according to machine). Scatter 1 rounded tablespoon thin strips of ham and 1 tablespoon shredded sharp white cheddar over each waffle. Cook until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a baking sheet; keep waffles warm in oven between batches. Serve with butter and warm maple syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat waffle iron on high until just beginning to smoke. Reduce heat to moderate and brush generously with some butter.
• Spread butter on 1 side of 8 bread slices and turn slices over. Top 4 slices with 1 slice ham and 1 slice cheese, folding in any overhang, then top with remaining 4 buttered bread slices, buttered sides up. Cook sandwiches in batches (number of batches will depend on size of your waffle maker) until bread is golden and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Assemble and cook 4 more sandwiches in same manner.
• Just before serving, cut each sandwich into 4 triangles.
