Ingredients
  

Chaffles
  • 1 kg potatoes peeled and grated
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese Use less for a lighter result
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tsp dried marjoram or oregano or both
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour gluten-free blend recommended
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • As needed cooking oil spray for the waffle iron

Equipment

  • Waffle iron
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Add the grated potatoes to a bowl and sprinkle with the salt. Toss them together and let them sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Squeeze out as much excess water as you can.
  2. Add the potatoes, cheddar cheese, eggs, minced garlic, dried herbs, flour, and baking powder to a large bowl. Mix everything well using a fork or spoon.
  3. Preheat your waffle iron. Set it to medium heat.
  4. Spray the iron with cooking spray. Add about 1 cup of the batter to the middle and spread it out so it is flat and can crisp up. Cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until golden brown. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, as the potatoes need extra time. Repeat this process with the remaining batter.
  5. Keep the cooked waffles in the oven preheated to 200F (100C) to keep them warm until you are ready to serve.
  6. Serve the chaffles with your chosen toppings.

Notes

The type of potatoes you use does not significantly affect this recipe; use what you have available. Larger potatoes are easier to grate.
Storing: You can keep these waffles in the fridge in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days or in the freezer in a freezer-safe container or bag for 1 to 2 months. To reheat, place them directly into a toaster.
