These waffles can be made ahead of time, frozen and popped in the toaster when you’re ready to eat.
Ingredients:
- 4 cups shredded sweet potato (use the largest holes in a box grater)
- 2 beaten eggs
- Pinch of salt
- Olive oil or nonstick cooking spray
Directions:
- In a bowl, mix grated sweet potato with eggs and salt.
- Preheat waffle iron. Once preheated, spray iron with nonstick spray or coat with olive oil. Fill waffle iron (be careful not to overfi ll) and cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions until crispy.
- For sweet waffles: Top with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, or a dash of cinnamon and fresh berries. For savory waffles: Top with an egg (either scrambled or sunny-side up), sliced tomato and sliced avocado.
