Sweet Potato Waffles
These waffles are not only tasty but also bring a cozy embrace of fall flavors to your breakfast table. Plus, they’re perfect for those days when you need to impress your brunch guests or just want to eat something that makes you feel like a culinary genius.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes (about 2 medium sweet potatoes)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar (or more if you like it sweet)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, but totally recommended!)
- 1 cup milk (dairy or your favorite substitute)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil for a twist)
Instructions
- First, steam or bake your sweet potatoes until they’re tender. Mash them up like you’ve just won a mashed potato contest and set them aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Ensure there are no lumps – we want a smooth sailing batter!
- In another bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix it like you’re trying to create a potion for waffle-making happiness.
- Now, make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir gently until combined. Don’t overmix it; we’re making waffles, not a workout session!
- Heat up your waffle iron and grease it so the waffles don’t get stuck. Pour in the batter and cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions. Usually, it’s around 3-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and smell absolutely divine.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings—think maple syrup, whipped cream, or even a sprinkle of nuts if you’re feeling fancy!
There you have it! Delightful Sweet Potato Waffles that will make your taste buds sing and your mornings more cheerful. Enjoy every scrumptious bite and share with those who need a little sweetness in their lives!
