Purple Sweet Potato Waffles

When you’re looking to enjoy something familiar (but new) at the breakfast table, these purple sweet potato waffles can satisfy your needs.

I was making sweet potato pies one day and ended up with a lot of filling leftover and a big light bulb came on immediately. The consistency of the sweet potato filling was very similar to a very thick waffle mix. So I added a few more ingredients to get it where I needed it.

This is actually one of my favorite breakfast recipes and topping the waffles with a handful of fresh fruits was a plus. The kids will love this recipe as well! Since the flavors of vanilla extract, honey, brown sugar and honey are always welcoming, they just may think they are eating dessert.
