Sweet Potato Grilled Cheese Waffle

We got a little inventive here – We wanted a unique waffle and to mash it up with a grilled cheese!  Seriously delicious, you’ll have a new favorite breakfast go-to.  Sweet Potato Grilled Cheese Waffles will be yummy in anyone’s book!

Ingredients:

3 cups shredded sweet potato
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup waffle mix
1/8 cup onion, diced
1 egg
1 tbsp canola oil
1 tbsp sour cream
1 tbsp cinnamon
4 slices cheddar cheese
2 long pieces maple bacon (cut in half to make 4)
Any desired toppings (whipped cream, maple or fruit syrup, ginger pieces, chocolate chips, etc)

Directions:

To begin, plug in the waffle iron to start heating. In medium mixing bowl, mix waffle mix, water, oil, onion, cinnamon, sour cream and mix well until smooth. In a medium saucepan, heat to medium and add shredded sweet potatoes to soften them. (Approximately 4 minutes) Then, add to waffle mixture. Add 1/2 to coat bottom of the waffle iron. Place 2 cheese slices in the center with cooked bacon pieces on top, then add 2 remaining cheese. Add the rest of the waffle mixture, covering cheese. Close waffle iron and cook until golden brown, approximately 7 minutes. Remove carefully after you can see it is golden. Cover with desired toppings or eat plain! Enjoy!
