Cheesy Leftover Mashed Potato Waffles
Savory waffles made from leftover mashed potatoes, cheddar and scallions, served with sour cream.
Equipment
- Waffle baker
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
- 3 tablespoons scallions chopped
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- sour cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle baker and grease it with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, buttermilk and eggs. Stir in the mashed potatoes, scallions and cheese until well combined.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and baking soda. Fold the flour mixture into the potato mixture until well combined. Scoop 1/2 to 2/3 cup, depending on waffle baker size, into the prepared waffle baker and spread into an even layer. Close the lid and bake until golden brown and the egg is cooked throughout.
- Transfer the waffle to a serving plate and repeat with the remaining potato mixture.
- Serve topped with sour cream and additional chopped scallions.
Notes
Leftover mashed potatoes vary in consistency. If the batter is too dry to hold together, add one more egg. If too wet, add flour 1 tablespoon at a time. Do not lift the waffle baker lid too soon; allow the waffle to cook through so it releases whole.
