Sweet Potato Waffles

Yes, this waffle thing is still going on here.

I am putting everything and anything in the waffle maker.

This is a phase, so please indulge me.

Here I tried my hand at sweet potato waffles.
Not hash browns, but more of a traditional waffle that puffs up and you can eat w/ maple syrup.

I shredded the sweets, like I would for potato pancakes. A bit of a challenge getting them to look nice, but they turned out delicious.

The next time I have a leftover cooked sweet potato, I will try it mashed instead of the shredding.
Either or, I loved the taste.

Sweet Potato Waffles: makes 4

1 large sweet potato, peeled and grated (or a leftover cooked sweet potato, mashed)
2 scallions (green onion), chopped
3/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 egg
3 tbsp melted butter
1/2 cup of milk
inch of salt & pepper

Add all ingredients to the grated sweet potatoes in a bowl.

Preheat and spray the waffle iron liberally w/ non-stick cooking spray.

Spread the batter evenly onto the waffle press and close the lid.

Cook about 7-10 minutes (these take a bit longer than the usual waffles).

They may not be perfect squares, but they taste delicious!
