Ingredients

  • 10 oz frozen riced sweet potato/cauliflower steamed and cooked, patted dry
  • 1 c. shredded cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • tsp. salt
  • tsp. pepper to taste
  • Olive oil spray

Instructions

  • Preheat waffle maker. Cook riced veggies as directed, for best results I use the microwavable steam kind. Allow to cool and pat dry to remove as much moisture as possible.
  • In a bowl, combine riced sweet potato/cauliflower, cheese, eggs, salt and pepper
  • Grease waffle maker and add mixture
  • Cook until browned, depends on waffle maker but between 5-8 minutes. Don't open too early, it won't stick together
  • Serve with ketchup or sour cream

Notes

How to make a perfect waffle

  • Be Patient, I repeat Be Patient - This waffle does take some time to cook. It's tempting to open up the waffle maker to check if it's cooked but doing so prematurely will cause the batter to break apart.
  • Grease Waffle Maker - I've made the mistake plenty of times to forget to spray each side of the waffle maker after every waffle. Please don't forget this step.
  • Use frozen riced cauliflower/sweet potato. While I've tried cauliflower on its own, the sweet potato really does help mask the cauliflower scent, so I suggest using the combination. I found the combination in my freezer aisle. 
  • Waffle Maker - Get a good waffle maker. This waffle maker I bought is less than $20. It works great 
  • Fill Waffle Maker generously - While the batter does tend to drip on the side when closed, filling it too thinly will create a very thin waffle. Just use a paper towel or kitchen towel and place it around the waffle maker to catch leakage.
