SERVES

Yields8 Waffles

Prep: 15 min

Cook: 20 min

Ingredients

5 large Longo’s Enriched Coop Eggs1/2 cup Longo’s Blanched Almond Meal1 tsp baking powder1/2 tsp each salt and pepper4 cups grated American sweet potato (about 2 medium or 1lb, peeled)1 cup shredded Longo’s Medium Cheddar Cheese1 large jalapeño, diced (seed before dicing if you prefer less heat)1/4 cup finely diced red onionLongo’s Sour Cream (optional)Chili-Lime Maple Syrup:2/3 cup Longo’s Maple Syrup2 tsp Longo’s Essentials Chili Powder1 tbsp finely grated lime zest2 tbsp fresh lime juice

Directions

Chili-Lime Maple Syrup: Gently warm maple syrup with chili powder in small saucepan until heated through and fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in lime zest and juice. Pour into pitcher and reserve.

Whisk eggs with almond flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in large bowl; mix in sweet potato, cheese, jalapeño and onion until well combined.

Lightly coat preheated waffle maker with cooking spray. Scoop 1/2 cup lightly packed measures per waffle, spreading gently with a spatula; close lid and cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until evenlybrowned and cooked through.

Keep batches warm on rack set over rimmed baking sheet in 200°F oven.

Serve waffles with Chili-Lime Maple Syrup and a dollop sour cream, if using.

TIP: No waffle maker? No problem – pancakes it is! Reduce eggs to 4 (as the extra egg will pool more in the skillet). Lightly oil cast iron or heavy nonstick skillet and set over medium heat. Working in batches as needed, scoop 1/2 cup measures of mixture into skillet; flatten slightly. Fry for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.
