Sweet Potato Waffles with Whipped Orange Butter
Would you say this recipe is...
+ VOTE NOWPioneers in Missouri and Kansas used sweet potato plants to help break up the prairie soil in their gardens. This recipe uses the same tuber to break up the monotony of ho-hum pancakes. With a boost of color and vitamins A and C from sweet potatoes, these waffles are delicious any time of year. Topped with a dollop of fluffy orange butter, the waffles don’t really need syrup. But go ahead if you must. This batter also makes delicious pancakes.
Recipe from Heartland by Judith Fertig/Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2011.
Ingredients
Directions
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, brown sugar, cinnamon, and ginger. Add the milk, sorghum, pumpkin, and egg. Whisk until smooth.
Bake in a waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions. Baking time will vary with the consistency of the batter and your preference for browning.
For the butter, place the butter, orange zest, and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer and whip until light and fluffy. Serve with the waffles. The butter will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Ever Hungry & want something, but don't know what? Great snack for all especially late at night when you don't want to many calories. Toast a waffle and if you like flavored cream cheese after cool add about an inch of favorite flavorite Cream Cheese to cover waffle. Enjoy :-)
