These sweet potato waffles with amaranth flakes are light, fluffy, and naturally sweet. Mashed sweet potato keeps them moist, while amaranth builds up the texture and adds extra nourishment. The batter comes together easily in a blender for fuss-free preparation. Serve them warm with maple syrup, pecans, or your favorite toppings for a wholesome start to the day.
