Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• For the Maple Cream:
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; do not overmix.
5. Pour the batter into the preheated waffle maker, using about 1/2 cup of batter for each waffle. Close the lid and cook until golden and crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
6. While the waffles are cooking, make the maple cream by whipping the heavy cream, maple syrup, and vanilla extract together until soft peaks form.
7. Once the waffles are ready, remove them and let them cool slightly before assembling the sandwiches.
8. Spread a generous layer of maple cream between two waffles to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining waffles.

Notes

Tip: For an extra special touch, try adding chopped nuts or fruit inside the sandwich before topping with the second waffle for added texture.

For the best texture, make sure to blend your sweet potato mixture until smooth. If you prefer a lighter version, consider using whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour. You can also experiment with different toppings, such as sliced bananas or pecans, for added flavor and crunch.

These waffles are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Simply reheat in a toaster or waffle maker to restore their crispy texture.
