Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tapioca starch
- 2 tablespoons Almond flour
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and grate them using a box grater or food processor with a grating attachment.
Place the grated potatoes into a clean towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for achieving crispy waffles.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the squeezed potatoes, tapioca starch, almond flour, egg, and olive oil. Mix well until all ingredients are integrated.
Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl. Stir to distribute the seasonings evenly.
Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. If necessary, lightly coat with additional olive oil to prevent sticking.
Once the waffle iron is heated, scoop approximately 1/2 cup of the potato mixture into the center of the iron and spread it out slightly to cover the surface.
Close the waffle iron lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. Cooking times may vary based on the waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffle and set it aside to cool for a minute. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve immediately with your favorite Paleo-friendly toppings or accompaniments.
