Healthy Hashbrown Chaffle (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
4 cups grated hash browns, thawed (frozen or chilled)
02 -
1/4 cup grated cheese
03 -
1 teaspoon flavored salt
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the waffle iron. If it has a heat setting, select medium-high heat for a crispy finish.
02 -
In a large bowl, mix the thawed shredded hash browns, grated cheese, and seasoned salt thoroughly to evenly distribute the cheese and seasoning.
03 -
Spray or brush the waffle iron with pan release to prevent sticking.
04 -
Place about 1 cup of the hash brown mixture onto the waffle iron. Close the waffle iron completely and cook until browned and crisp. Steam generation is normal during cooking.
05 -
Serve the waffles immediately for the best texture. If not serving right away, cool them on a wire rack to prevent sogginess.
# Notes:
01 -
Cooking will generate noticeable steam, which is completely normal.
02 -
Cool the waffles on a wire rack if not eating immediately to retain crispiness.
