Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large russet potatoes peeled and grated
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese optional
  • 1/4 cup green onions chopped (optional)
  • Cooking spray or oil for the waffle iron

Method
 

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or oil.
  2. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for achieving crispy waffles.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and beaten egg. If using, fold in the cheddar cheese and green onions.
  4. Scoop about 1 cup of the potato mixture into the preheated waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Close the lid and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
  5. Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining potato mixture. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, applesauce, or ketchup.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, try adding a tablespoon of cornstarch to the potato mixture.
  • You can also experiment with different cheeses or herbs to customize the flavor.
  • For a heartier version, mix in cooked bacon or sausage before cooking.
