Sweet Potato Waffles
Sweet potatoes possess a balance of moisture, starch, and sugar that makes them ideal for baked goods, especially those requiring considerable surface browning such as waffles.I humbly suggest serving these with a drizzle of maple syrup (the real thing, Grade A, dark robust taste), toasted pecans, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.Both U.S. standard and metric measurements are listed, but for consistently delicious results, go metric. This recipe first appeared in Season 7 of Good Eats.
