Buffalo Hummus Chicken Waffle Bites
The perfect game day bite, these buffalo hummus chicken waffle bites have sharp melted cheddar, blue cheese crumbles and crunchy chopped celery on top!
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- waffle mix *see note
- 2 green onions chopped
- salt and pepper
- 1 1/2 cups cooked shredded chicken rotisserie store bought chicken is great for this
- 3 ounces Sabra classic hummus
- 1/4 cup buffalo sauce
- 3 ounces sharp cheddar cheese divided
- 2 stalks celery finely chopped
- blue cheese crumbles for topping
Instructions
- Preheat and grease your waffle iron.
- Add green onions, salt and pepper to your waffle batter and mix together.
- Add about 1/3 the amount of normal batter you would to your waffle iron for a bite-sized waffle and cook according to your waffle iron's directions. Repeat until all waffles are made and set aside. The chicken amount makes enough for about 6 waffles. If you're making more waffles than that, you'll have to increase the other ingredient amounts as well.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Combine chicken, hummus and buffalo sauce in a medium bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
- Slice 2 ounces of the cheddar thinly and place on top of the waffle bites. Arrange the waffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and melt in the oven for about 3 minutes.
- Remove from oven, spoon chicken mixture evenly on top of each waffle and divide the remaining 1 ounce of cheddar cheese on top (sliced or crumbled is fine). Return to the oven for another 3 minutes.
- Remove from oven, add chopped celery and crumbled blue cheese to each waffle and serve warm.
Notes
Waffle mix - use your favorite mix or make a batch from scratch. I used Kodiak Cakes (highly recommend and LOVE!) which you just add water to and eye-balled the amount of mix per waffle bite. You want these waffles to be about 1/3 the size of regular ones so just use the appropriate amount of whatever batter you choose.
