  • 2 c. 1 fl oz oat flour (you can grind oatmeal in a coffee grinder)

Instructions

For waffles

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Prick a large sweet potato in a few places with a fork and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Cook for 45 to 60 minutes, until very tender.
  • Let cool for a few minutes, remove the skin, and mash the flesh into a smooth purée using a fork or a pestle.
  • Let cool for about 10 minutes before continuing.
  • Preheat the waffle maker.
  • In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato puree, shredded cheese, flour, and flax seeds, paprika, garlic powder, and pepper.
  • The mixture should be thick, but easy to spread.
  • Lightly oil the waffle iron.
  • Distribute the mixture into the mold without over-packing it.
  • Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crispy.
  • Let stand for 1-2 minutes before removing so it retains its texture.
  • Meanwhile, fry the eggs in a pan until the whites are set and the yolk is runny or firm, as you like.
  • Place a waffle on each plate.
  • Garnish with avocado slices or a generous spoonful of guacamole.
  • Add a fried egg.
  • Garnish with chives, a little freshly ground pepper, and, if needed, a few chili flakes.
