Gluten Free Sweet Potato Waffles: Rich, warming spices, and sweet potato are blended into an easy gluten-free blender waffle batter that is transformed into the perfect fall breakfast.
I have shared many pancake recipes on the blog. Peanut Butter Cup Pancakes, High Protein Blender Pancakes, Strawberry Cheesecake Pancakes, PB&J Pancakes and even Sweet Potato Pancakes. Yet, I have only shared one basic whole wheat waffle recipe.
So it is high time I give some waffles some love–especially since I love waffles more than pancakes myself. It is those crispy edges and pockets for syrup that get me!
So today I am sharing with you one of my fall favorites: Gluten Free Sweet Potato Waffles. 
The best part about these waffles, other than their rich flavor, is how versatile they are.
I love to make them the day after Thanksgiving and sub out my leftover Sweet Potato Casserole for the sweet potato puree. But you could use canned pumpkin or even pumpkin pie –why not?!
It is as simple as gluten-free oats, sweet potato (or pumpkin or leftover Thanksgiving side dishes), a bit of milk (any variety), eggs and spices all whirled together in a blender and then baked to perfection on a greased waffle iron. I use a cheap waffle iron that has lasted for years I have tried a few fancier ones and they fail every time!
Then you just finish with bit of syrup and maybe a few toasted walnuts, and hello, breakfast!

Oh Yum! I love sweet potato everything, these look fantastic!
These are right up your alley for sure
I;m loving the idea of using leftover sweet potato casserole in these waffles – I’m tempted to make extra just so I have leftovers to make these – but even if I didn’t – sweet potato alone would make these some delightfully delicious waffles! Kristen – we have waffle sundays and these are going on ma list! Happy Tuesday 🙂
These MUST go on your list Shashi!
lucky for me, I have everything I need to make these this morning! YUMMY
You are very lucky indeed!
Great idea to sub in the sweet potato casserole from Thanksgiving, Kristen. What a delicious fall breakfast. We love waffles too. That is until our fancy waffle maker died last year. I need to pick up a cheap one that actually works!
Yes–cheap waffle makers seem to do the job quite nicely!
These look so delicious! I have to try these soon!
THank you Taylor–they are very tasty!
Love the sweet potato in the waffles– so clever!:)
Great way to sneak in some veggies!
Where is the recipe please? With measurements? It is not here or on the linked Monday page. Thanks!
Oh my goodness Kathleen–I had updated the recipe Sunday night and looks like I accidently deleted the recipe–YIKES!!! It is all fixed now.
