Buttermilk Sweet Potato Waffles + Vegetable Scramble (Gluten Free)

in food •  8 years ago 

I can’t deny it, when it comes to breakfast foods I’m a creature of habit.

Does that surprise you? I mean, you’d probably think that as a food blogger, because I’m constantly trying to come up with new flavor combinations and recipes to share with you guys, that I’d always have something new for breakfast. Actually though, the reality is that I’m very boring when it comes to breakfast foods typically. Oh, and then it doesn’t help that most of my family is made up of people who don’t do breakfast at all so I’m not very motivated to make it.

I love all the different foods that are generally considered breakfast items though (i.e. pancakes, french toast, biscuits and gravy…). In fact, we’re pretty strange around here and it’s way more typical in our house to eat “breakfast” foods for lunch or dinner time than first thing in the morning.

Growing up, we’ve always been that way so I’ve honestly never understood why some people think certain foods have to be eaten for a specific time of day. I think brunch and brinner are perfectly acceptable, they’re the best! To each their own I guess because, as I keep learning, every culture has it’s own strange food customs.

I wanted to tell you about this recipe. I love being able to make foods that everyone can enjoy but sometimes that means catering to certain dietary restrictions, so I feel like having gluten-free recipes that my whole family enjoys is always a good idea in case they’re ever necessary. I actually think that using rice flour as the main thickener for the waffles gives them an awesome and extra crispy texture, so it’s a win win!

Anyway, this whole combo comes together quickly and easily for simple but delicious breakfast. That’s one of my favorite parts about it. The sweet potato buttermilk waffles are only slightly sweetened so they pair really well with the savory veggie scramble in place of something that might usually be served with scrambled eggs, like toast.

If you prefer it though, feel free to add what’s more typical with waffles, sweet toppings like syrup or fruit. (Hehe, unlike some people I don’t put boundaries about what foods can go together or judge what people like to eat.) The point is that you can take this as an inspiration and make it your own. That goes for the veggies and cheese in the egg scramble also. I chose to use the ones I did based on the ingredients I had on hand but you can switch them out for things you like better.

So I hope this at least adds some fresh ideas to your day. Have a great weekend!

As always, the recipe is available upon request, and I always give an upvote for the first one.

Great photos as usual! Waffles are my favorite! It can be eaten with peanut butter or ice cream or even fried chicken. Even better with all 3!

Wow, now that sounds like a breakfast extravaganza. I'll have to try it sometime @howtostartablog!

That looks like a delicious breakfast. Not gluten intolerant myself and allways when I hear it I think about some not so tasty replacement food. Glad to see that with this one that is definitely not the case! Have fun out there and good luck with future posts!

How sweet! I really appreciate the thought @totalgyan!

Amazing work :)

Thank you @umangkochar1996!

Now that looks like a good breakfast, due to my own laziness I never give myself enough time in the mornings to make a decent breakfast. The only time I make a real effort is when on holiday which sadly isn't often enough!! xx

Well I hope this recipe has inspired you to try something new @totallysacha. Thanks for commenting!

I love avocados... Those waffles look so good.

Awesome Food.....I will now be making an awesome saturday breakfast:)

That's a big breakfast haha
Looks good, love waves your way.

So yummy!!! Thanks for sharing such great stuff!!! Upvoted. Enjoy your day!!!!

Crispy waffles vs. fluffy waffles? I like the looks of your crispy waffles. And tnot having to make them sweet. It's more like 'waffle' as a method of cooking, rather than a type of food. And that would be a great use for leftover sweet potatoes. Might as well cook a batch of them in anticipation of using them, somehow!

Yum! Love waffles, but never have them for breakfast! Where I grew up it's more a snack! And I'm quite boring too when it comes to breakfast.... green smoothies it is for me on most mornings hehe

Hello @gringalicious, good post. I'm a new blogger and recently joined the platform. It would be awesome if you could check out my blog and click the follow button if you enjoy reading my articles. Much appreciated.

@gringalicious

My friend, I would like to wish you a great day! Do not interrupt me and do not even think to tell me that you will have a regular ordinary day, which will only be marked by a meeting with friends. You should be able to find positive moments in every day, you should try to surround yourself only with positive, then everything will be just wonderful for you. Believe that many depend on you and on your attitude. Just try to think about everything in a positive way. I wish you a good day! Let him give you the opportunity to become even better, reach new heights and gain strength for tomorrow. By the way, tomorrow will also be wonderful, just believe in it. Let your mood be on top. Have a great day!

This looks like an amazing breakfast! Waffles and avocado, some of my favourite things :) Love it!
