Sweet Potato and Pecan Waffles image

Make a big batch of these bright orange waffles when you want to slow down and make a nice, hot breakfast-then freeze the leftovers to pop in the toaster on mornings that aren't so slow.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium sweet potato, baked until tender, skin removed, and mashed (about 3/4 cup)
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened almond, coconut, or cashew milk
2 eggs or egg replacer equivalent
3 tablespoons unsweetened almond butter
1 tablespoon flax meal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Zest of 1 medium clementine
Pinch of ground cardamom
Pinch of ground nutmeg
½ cup chopped pecans, plus more for topping
Olive oil cooking spray
Maple syrup, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients except the pecans in a blender or food processor and blend until relatively smooth (there may still be some lumps; that's okay). Fold in the pecans.
  • Preheat a waffle iron to medium heat and grease with cooking spray. Pour about ¾ cup of the batter into the center of the waffle iron. Press closed and cook until the waffle is golden brown and the edges are slightly crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and repeat on the other side. Serve warm topped with pecans and a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potato, but I thought these waffles were pretty good. They were light and fluffy, and the pecan flavor was a nice touch.

The waffles were a little bland for my taste. I think they would have been better with some added spices, like cinnamon or nutmeg.

These waffles are a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I also added some chopped walnuts to the batter, which gave them a nice crunchy texture.

I had some trouble getting the waffles to cook evenly. Some of them were overcooked while others were still undercooked.

The waffles were a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. They were still very good.
