For an extra depth of flavor, try using roasted sweet potato instead of microwaved. Roasting brings out the natural sugars and adds a caramelized note. Feel free to adjust the amount of cinnamon and lime zest to suit your personal taste preferences. Serve these waffles with a dollop of Greek yogurt, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a sprinkle of toasted pecans for a complete and satisfying breakfast.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrick the sweet potato several times with a fork. Place in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until tender, about 5-10 minutes. Let cool slightly, then measure out 3/4 cup of the cooked sweet potato, reserving the rest for another culinary adventure. (5 minutes)
02
StepPreheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure it's nicely heated for that perfect golden crisp. (2 minutes)
03
StepIn a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. This ensures even distribution of the leavening and spices. (3 minutes)
04
StepIn a separate bowl, combine the cooked sweet potato, eggs, melted butter, brown sugar, lime juice, vanilla extract, and lime zest. Mix well until smooth. This creates the flavorful base for your waffles. (5 minutes)
05
StepPour the wet sweet potato mixture into the dry flour mixture. Gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. (2 minutes)
06
StepSpoon the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using the amount recommended by your waffle iron's instructions. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, usually around 4-6 minutes. (5 minutes)
07
StepCarefully remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately. Repeat with the remaining batter, keeping the cooked waffles warm in a low oven if desired. (5 minutes)
