WIW: Quick Pumpkin Custard

4 T. graham cracker crumbs, plus more for serving

2 T. all-purpose flour

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. ground ginger

Pinch grated nutmeg

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 C. packed brown sugar

4 oz. cream cheese, room temperature

1 large egg

1/2 C. pumpkin puree (from one 15-oz. can)

Nonstick cooking spray

Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving

 

Preheat waffle iron. (If it has temperature adjustment, set it to medium.) In large bowl, thoroughly combine graham cracker crumbs, flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and brown sugar. Add cream cheese, egg and pumpkin and stir until well blended and smooth. Spray both sides of waffle iron with nonstick spray and place about 1/2 C. of batter onto each section of waffle iron. Cook until just starting to brown, about 3 minutes. The finished product will still be soft when done and will firm up slightly as it cools. Remove from waffle iron and repeat previous step with any remaining batter. Serve warm topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, dusted with graham cracker crumbs.

WIW: Cheesy Leftover Mashed Potato Waffles

2 T. Vegetable Oil

2 ½ C. leftover Mashed Potatoes

½ C. AP Flour

¼ C. Buttermilk

3 T. Scallions, chopped

½ tsp. Baking Powder

2 Eggs

1 C. shredded Cheddar Cheese

¼ tsp. Baking Soda

 

Preheat the waffle baker and grease it with cooking spray. In large bowl, whisk together oil, buttermilk and eggs. Stir in the mashed potatoes, scallions and cheese until well combined. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and baking soda. Fold the flour mixture into the potato mixture until it’s well combined. Scoop 1/2 to 2/3 C. (depending on the size of your waffle baker) of the mixture into the prepared waffle baker, spreading it into an even layer. (The potato mixture will not spread or expand as much as a regular waffle, so it’s important to spread it in an even layer.) Close the lid and let the waffle bake until golden brown and the egg is cooked throughout. Transfer the waffle to a serving plate then repeat the filling and baking process with the remaining potato mixture. Serve the potato waffles topped with sour cream and garnished with additional chopped scallions. Notes: All leftover mashed potatoes will vary in consistency depending on how much cream, milk or melted butter you added to the original batch. If the waffle batter looks too dry and isn’t holding together, add one more egg. If it looks too wet, add more flour, 1 T. at a time, until the mixture is cohesive. Do not lift up the waffle baker lid too soon or you’ll risk having the mixture separate and stick to the waffle baker. Allowing the waffle to cook through before opening the waffle baker ensures the waffle can be removed whole.

2 C. Flour

½ C. Sugar

2 tsp. Baking Powder

½ tsp. Salt

2 Eggs

1 C. Milk

1/3 C. Canola Oil

2 tsp. Vanilla Extract

½ C. Rainbow Sprinkles

 

Spray grids of waffle iron with nonstick spray and preheat. In a large bowl, use wire whisk to combine dry ingredients (not sprinkles). In a second bowl, mix wet ingredients. Pour egg mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just to combine; batter will be slightly lumpy. Stir in sprinkles gently. Use a ladle to scoop and pour batter into grids, but do not overfill. Cover and cook 4-5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with fun toppings.
