Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons green onions
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese
- as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and grate them using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes with flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with milk until well blended. Pour the egg mixture into the potato mixture and stir to combine.
Melt the butter and let it cool slightly before adding it to the potato mixture. Stir in the chopped green onions and shredded cheddar cheese.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Spoon an appropriate amount of potato mixture onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Close the lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle iron and repeat the process with the remaining potato mixture.
Serve the crispy potato waffles warm, topped with sour cream, bacon bits, or your favorite toppings for an extra delicious meal.
