Calories 16 kcal

Ingredients
  

  • ½ baked sweet potato (about ½ cup puréed)
  • 1 small banana (about ¼ cup mashed)
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • ½ cup oat flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (Ceylon)

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, mash half of a baked sweet potato and a small, ripe banana together with a fork.
  • In a small bowl, beat an egg with a fork. Then, add it to the sweet potato and banana mixture. Blend well with a spoon.
  • Melt the coconut oil in the microwave and add this to the sweet potato, banana, egg mixture. Blend well with a spoon.
  • Add the oat flour and cinnamon to the sweet potato, banana, egg, coconut mixture. Blend with a spoon until well combined. The consistency will be a cake-like batter.
  • Heat a waffle iron according to your brand’s instructions. I used a Dash mini waffle iron.
  • When the waffle iron is heated, spray coconut oil to grease the metal plates.
  • Scoop about a tablespoon of batter three to four different times, placing separately on the metal plates of the waffle iron. Repeat this process until you run out of batter.
  • Cook until golden brown. (The light on my waffle maker turns on when the lid is closed and turns off when the waffles are ready.)
  • Remove the waffles from the heat and allow to cool thoroughly.
  • Store in a zip-lock baggie in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze for up to two to three weeks.

Notes

*I used half of a baked sweet potato, but you can use canned sweet potato purée. Make sure there is not any added sugar or sweetener.
*I like organic cinnamon and I prefer Ceylon cinnamon over Cassius cinnamon. It is sometimes hard to find, so you can use the cinnamon you have on hand.
