Kickstart your day with savory sweet potato waffles and a turmeric avocado drizzle. A nutrient-packed, delicious breakfast that fuels your day!
Ingredients
- • sweet potatoes: 2 medium, peeled and grated
- • whole wheat flour: 1 cup
- • Greek yogurt: 1/2 cup
- • eggs: 2 large
- • baking powder: 1 teaspoon
- • salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- • black pepper: 1/4 teaspoon
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • avocado: 1 ripe
- • fresh lemon juice: 2 tablespoons
- • ground turmeric: 1/2 teaspoon
- • fresh cilantro: 2 tablespoons, chopped
- • almond milk: 1/4 cup
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- 2 In a large bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, whole wheat flour, Greek yogurt, eggs, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined, forming a thick batter.
- 3 Lightly grease the preheated waffle maker with olive oil. Pour a portion of the sweet potato batter onto the waffle maker and close the lid. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- 4 While the waffles are cooking, prepare the turmeric avocado drizzle. In a blender, combine the avocado, lemon juice, turmeric, cilantro, and almond milk. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency with additional almond milk if needed.
- 5 Once the waffles are ready, serve them warm with a generous drizzle of the turmeric avocado sauce. Garnish with extra cilantro if desired.
Serving Suggestions
- • These savory sweet potato waffles pair wonderfully with a side of mixed greens tossed in a light vinaigrette, adding a refreshing contrast to the warmth of the waffles. Consider topping the waffles with a poached egg for an extra boost of protein and a runny yolk that complements the turmeric avocado drizzle beautifully. Pair this breakfast delight with a freshly brewed cup of herbal tea or a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice to balance the flavors and kickstart your morning with a burst of energy.
Storage Tips
To store leftover waffles, allow them to cool completely, then place them in an airtight container. They can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze the waffles between sheets of parchment paper in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster or oven until warm and crispy. The turmeric avocado drizzle is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Stir well before using.
