Savory Cauliflower Waffles
Riced cauliflower is the hero of these crisp and savory waffles that are fit for breakfast or dinner, and require just 10 minutes of prep.
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 12 oz (3 cups) packaged riced cauliflower (NOTE: Find it in the refrigerated section of the produce department. Avoid frozen for this use.)
- 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
- 1 tsp each mild smoked paprika and baking powder
- 1/2 tsp each sea salt and ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
Preparation
1. In a large bowl, beat eggs.
2. Mix in riced cauliflower, flour,
paprika, baking powder, salt and
pepper to form a thick batter. Gently
stir in cheese. (MAKE AHEAD: Make
batter up to 12 hours in advance;
cover and store in the refrigerator.)
3. Heat a waffle iron on high
according to a manufacturer’s
instructions. Generously coat the
iron’s plates with cooking spray.
4. Add 1/2 cup batter into center
of plate and close iron. Cook until
browned and set, about 3 minutes.
Repeat with remaining batter, misting
with cooking spray between waffles.
TIP: We used a square waffle iron,
but you can use any size or shape.
Pour the batter into the center, and
it will spread. However, avoid using a
waffle maker with very deep pockets
for this recipe.
