I first made hash brown waffles a few months ago wanting to test out if they really worked. I was thinking that they wouldn't really stick together and that they would make a big mess in my waffle iron but the idea sounded so unique that I wanted to give it a try. I was definitely wrong and they turned out amazing. I knew that I had to share the recipe with you all!

For this recipe, you can use frozen hash browns that are defrosted or you can shred your own potatoes or even use sweet potatoes. To keep things simple, I used frozen hash browns that I defrosted. I also used sharp cheddar cheese for this recipe but you can feel free to use whatever kind of cheese you like.

I topped mine with a fried egg which helps to make it a complete meal- just pair with a side salad or some fruit. These waffles have a lot of flavor but you can feel free to add even more: spices that would be great would be chili powder and cumin for a Mexican flair. Or you could add chopped up bacon and chives- yum!

You can make these for breakfast of course but they also make a great breakfast-for-dinner option as well. My husband and I couldn't get enough of these waffles and have enjoyed making them as an easy dinner idea.

I cannot get over how easy they are yet how delicious they taste. I want to keep experimenting with these and maybe try some sweet potato hash brown waffles as well. They would be perfect for a brunch too. Serve with fruit, bacon, coffee, a fried egg, etc.
