These sweet potato waffles with amaranth flakes are light, fluffy, and naturally sweet. Mashed sweet potato keeps them moist, while amaranth builds up the texture and adds extra nourishment. The batter comes together easily in a blender for fuss-free preparation. Serve them warm with maple syrup, pecans, or your favorite toppings for a wholesome start to the day.

Directions

Preheat the waffle iron. Lightly coat it with cooking spray or brush with oil.
Add the mashed sweet potato, flour, milk, olive oil, eggs, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to a blender. Blend until smooth and no chunks of sweet potato remain.
Transfer the batter to a bowl and gently fold in the amaranth flakes.
Pour about ⅓ cup of batter into the preheated waffle iron. Close and cook until golden and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Enjoy warm with your favorite toppings.
