Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 pound), peeled and grated

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

2 large eggs

1/4 cup milk (or non-dairy milk)

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Cooking spray or oil for the waffle iron

Optional: Sliced avocado, cooked bacon, or sautéed spinach for layering

Instructions
 

Preheat the Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Sweet Potato Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, flour, cheddar cheese, eggs, milk, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated. The mixture should be thick but spreadable.

      Cook the Waffles: Pour about 1/2 cup of the sweet potato batter into the preheated waffle iron (adjust based on the size of your waffle iron). Close the lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed.

        Assemble the Sandwiches: Once all waffles are cooked, take two waffles and stack them with your choice of additional fillings: sliced avocado, crispy bacon, or sautéed spinach work wonderfully. Top with another waffle to complete the sandwich.

          Serve: Cut the sandwiches in half and serve warm. These sandwiches are perfect paired with a side of Greek yogurt or a dollop of sour cream for dipping!
