Sweet, Spiced, and Made for Brunch

These sweet potato waffles are what cozy mornings dream of—soft, buttery, full of spice, and crowned with a warm pecan cinnamon glaze that brings it all together. They’re the perfect mix of Southern comfort and brunch indulgence, with deep sweet potato flavor and a glaze that tastes like warm pie filling in syrup.

Whether you’re hosting brunch, treating yourself on a weekend, or just trying to use up leftover sweet potatoes, this recipe is a guaranteed hit.


Ingredients

For the Sweet Potato Waffle Batter

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Belgian waffle mix (prepared according to package directions)

For the Warm Pecan Cinnamon Glaze

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon sugar
  • ½ cup pecan halves

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cook and Prep the Sweet Potatoes

  1. Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork and microwave for 10 minutes or until tender.
  2. Peel the skin off, then mash with butter, both sugars, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
  3. Keep the mixture thick and well blended—no lumps.

2. Make the Waffle Batter

  1. Prepare Belgian waffle mix as directed.
  2. Add the sweet potato mixture to the batter and stir until fully combined and smooth.
  3. Your batter should be thick but pourable.

3. Cook the Waffles

  1. Heat and grease your waffle iron or waffle pan.
  2. Pour in batter and cook according to waffle iron instructions until crispy and golden.

4. Make the Warm Pecan Cinnamon Glaze

  1. In a saucepan, warm butter, milk, powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, and pecan halves over medium heat.
  2. Stir continuously until smooth, warm, and slightly thickened. Remove from heat.

5. Plate & Serve

  1. Stack your waffles, drizzle with warm glaze, and add whipped cream if you’re feelin’ fancy.
  2. Serve immediately and enjoy every cozy bite.

Pro Tips & Serving Suggestions

  • Make ahead: Roast or microwave the sweet potatoes the day before to save time.
  • Extra crispy waffles? Let them cook a little longer for that perfect crunch on the outside.
  • Switch up the glaze: Try adding maple syrup or a splash of bourbon to deepen the flavor.
  • No waffle iron? This batter also works great for sweet potato pancakes!
