Wanted to christen my new mini waffle maker that I got for my birthday. So made a recipe from Feel Good Foodie the 1st night and A Mind Full Mom the 2nd night. I think I liked the latter better, but they are both very similar except 1st one used all purpose flour. Modified a little to make it simpler for me.
Ingredients:
-1 cup (almond) milk
-2 cups sweet potato puree (1 large sweet potato)
-2 eggs
-2 cups (rolled) oats
-2 tsp baking powder
-1 tsp baking soda
-1/2 tsp salt
-1 tsp cinnamon
-1/2 tsp nutmeg
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-zest of an orange (optional)
Directions:
1. Microwave sweet potato for 5 min total, turning halfway through
2. In large Cuisinart, add all dry ingredients and blend a little
3. Add sweet potato and blend
4. Add egg and milk and blend
5. Preheat waffle iron and spray waffle iron with cooking spray (didn't seem to need it, at least later)
6. Put about 3 Tbsp batter each time
7. Cook for 7 min
8. Let waffles cool on baking rack - forgot to do this and just put on plate
9. Reheat in toaster when ready
Note:
-Made 6 total waffles. 2 for the sausage sandwich + 1 for just maple syrup and pecans for each of us
-I only used 1 sweet potato for recipe, but seemed too dry, so likely needs more milk or less oats. When I looked up how many sweet potatoes 1 cup mashed is, it turned out to be 2 sweet potatoes, so 4 sweet potatoes???
-They were too soft to use as buns for my sausage sandwiches, so had to reheat in toaster.
-Served with maple syrup and sriracha sauce made by Eric
-Sausage sandwich tasted SOOO much better with avocado slices. Should add red onion and tomato next time.
-Took a long time to make the waffles, but just washed dishes while I was waiting
-sprayed with olive oil spray each time, but then forgot and didn't seem to need me to spray, so maybe just spray the first time?
-Original recipe called for ingredients to be added to blender in order listed, but I didn't want whole oat pieces for Eric, so did the way I wanted in directions.
