Bacon Potato Waffle Tips
What can I use instead of a waffle iron?
Instead of a waffle iron, trying making waffles on a grill pan. Preheat the pan to medium heat, then brush with oil. Ladle on the batter onto the pan with a ¼ or ½ measuring cup, then lower the heat. Cook on one side for 3-4 minutes; flip and cook the other side 3-4 more minutes. Waffles made on a grill pan will not have the same crispy brown edges as those made in a waffle iron, but they’ll have nice grooves to collect the syrup or applesauce.
Can you reheat potato waffles?
Yes, you can reheat potato waffles. Bake in a single layer on a baking sheet at 300° until heated through. You can also pop them back into the waffle maker for a few minutes to warm them up.

doughnuts and
brownies. Check out the
