All of your favorite things in one happy place - Leftover Mashed Potato Cheddar Waffles are your answer to the "what am I going to do with all these mashed potatoes?" dilemma. We love to garnish these savory waffles with extra cheese, sour cream and scallions. Oh! And if you've got a little leftover bacon around.....bring it on.
In a large mixing bowl, combine oil, buttermilk, and eggs; stir in mashed potatoes, scallions and cheese. In a separate small bowl, combine dry ingredients together, then add to potato mixture, folding until combined.
Scoop 1/3 to 2/3 cup (depending on the size of your waffle maker) of the potato mixture into the prepared hot waffle iron, spreading it out into an even layer.
Close waffle iron lid and let waffle bake until golden brown and cooked throughout. Garnish with extra cheese and sour cream to serve.
Notes
If you're serving these to a larger group, these waffles can be made ahead and kept warm on a baking sheet in a 200 degree F. oven. **Be sure to check the blog post for lots of my favorite tips and tricks, specific instructions, recommended tools and FAQ's for making this recipe.
