Recipe Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to create these tasty potato waffles:
- 2 large potatoes (about 1lb), peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup grated cheese (cheddar works great)
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or a bit of oil for the waffle iron
Instructions
Now that you’ve got your ingredients lined up, let’s get cooking:
- Start by boiling the cubed potatoes in salted water until they’re soft – about 15-20 minutes should do the trick. Drain and let them cool a bit.
- Once cooled, mash the potatoes in a large bowl.
- Add the flour, grated cheese, milk, egg, baking powder, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the mashed potatoes. Mix until everything is combined well.
- Preheat your waffle iron and spray it with some cooking spray or brush it with oil.
- Spoon the potato mixture into the preheated waffle iron and close it. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy.
- Once done, carefully remove the waffles and serve them hot with your favorite toppings – think sour cream, chives, or even a dollop of salsa!
