- 1/3 cup flour
- 2 tablespoons cheddar cheese, 2%
- 2 tablespoons milk, if needed*
- *any other herbs/spices you want to add
Instructions
- Heat the waffle iron to it’s highest setting.
- Mix in a large bowl the mashed potatoes, egg, flour, and cheese. Add in any extra other herbs/spices for flavor that you want. If your mashed potatoes were already seasoned enough, you don’t have to add anything else. But here’s your chance to add more chives, more pepper, whatever you think it needs to bring more flavor. Just be careful not to add too much! I did end up adding 2 tablespoons milk to make the mashed potatoes just a little thinner. The dough will be thicker than a pancake batter, but you want it to be a bit soft and sticky, not dry.
- Place a scoop (I used a 1/4 cup) in the center of your waffle maker and close the lid. Cook for a few minutes (my waffle maker buzzes when it’s done). You want the waffles crisp on the outside. Finish with the remaining batter.
- Serve with an egg – prepared to your liking – and a few more crumbles of cheese.
