Ingredients

Scale

Sweet Potato Waffles

  • 4 cups sweet potato, grated
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (optional)
  • Olive oil, for greasing the waffle iron

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the grated sweet potato, eggs, and sea salt if using, until fully combined. This mixture forms the base for your paleo waffles.
  2. Heat the waffle iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Once hot, lightly drizzle olive oil on the surfaces to prevent the waffles from sticking during cooking.
  3. Cook the waffles: Spoon the sweet potato batter onto the preheated and greased waffle iron, spreading evenly. Close the lid and cook the waffles until they turn golden brown and crispy, which typically takes about 5 minutes but may vary depending on your waffle iron.
  4. Serve: Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately with your choice of favorite toppings, whether savory like avocado and eggs or sweet like maple syrup and berries.

Notes

  • You can adjust the amount of salt or omit it entirely depending on your taste preference.
  • Make sure to grate the sweet potato finely to ensure even cooking and a better waffle texture.
  • If your waffle iron sticks, add a little more olive oil before cooking each batch.
  • These waffles can be kept warm in a low oven while you finish cooking the rest.
