Ingredients
- 2 large russet potatoes
- 4 whole egg whites
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 0.5 cup chickpea flour
- 0.25 cup finely chopped chives
- 0.5 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons water
Directions
Step 1
Peel and grate the russet potatoes using a box grater. Once grated, place them in a clean tea towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out excess moisture.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, egg whites, cottage cheese, chickpea flour, and finely chopped chives. Mix thoroughly.
Step 3
Add the grated cheddar cheese, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the potato mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 4
Preheat your waffle iron according to its manufacturers' instructions.
Step 5
Lightly brush the waffle iron with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Spoon the potato mixture onto the hot waffle iron, filling it as per the size and depth required by your specific waffle maker. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, about 5-7 minutes depending on your waffle iron.
Step 7
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining potato mixture.
Step 8
Serve the high protein savory potato waffles warm, optionally with a side of Greek yogurt or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
