Lemon-Ricotta Cornmeal Waffles

Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.

Whisk flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.

Whisk half-and-half, ricotta cheese, eggs, melted butter, and lemon extract together in a separate bowl until smooth. Pour into the flour mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.

Coat the preheated waffle iron with cooking spray. Pour batter into waffle iron in batches and cook until crisp and golden brown and the iron stops steaming, about 5 minutes.
