Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup milk

1 large egg

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled (breakfast sausage or your choice)

Cooking spray or additional oil for greasing the waffle iron

Optional: Fresh chives or green onions for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat your waffle iron: Turn on your waffle iron and set it to medium heat. If using a non-stick waffle iron, you may not need to spray it with cooking oil.

    Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

      Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vegetable oil until well blended.

        Combine mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

          Add cheese and sausage: Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled sausage until evenly distributed in the batter.

            Cook the waffles: Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or oil. Pour a small amount of batter (about 1/4 cup) onto the center of the waffle iron, close the lid, and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions or until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes.

              Repeat: Remove the cooked waffle rounds and keep warm in a low oven while you cook the remaining batter.

                Serve: Once all waffle rounds are cooked, serve them warm, garnished with fresh chives or green onions if desired. Enjoy them plain or with your favorite syrup or dipping sauce!
