My potatoes stuck to the sides of the waffle iron, and the crumbled. Is there a secret to sboiding that fate?
Hi Scooter,
Sometimes waffles stick to a nonstick waffle maker when they need to cook a little longer. Close the lid and give them more time. If they’re still sticking, unplug the waffle maker and let the waffles cool before trying to pry them looks. (A wooden chopstick is a good tool for this.)
When testing several models of waffle makers, we found that Belgian-style waffle makers delivered the best nonstick experience and the prettiest waffles. Belgian waffle makers with multiple heat settings were even better. Our favorite was the Cuisinart Classic Round Waffle Maker. Remember to fully preheat the waffle-maker before using it.
Thank you,

This sounds delicious!! Reminds me of Dutch food my father made for us when I was young! Can’t wait to make this!!
It’s misleading if you rate the recipe without having made it. Please try making it, & THEN rate it.
Thank you for a stellar recipe. Creamy and crispy textures are a treat.
My dish was a bit of a mess. I didn’t peel the potatoes maybe that was the problem. They turned out all crumbly in my waffle maker or didn’t break up at all.
Sounds great, but help please…
What would be a good substitute for the cornstarch?
(Can’t have corn or derivatives.)
Thanks!
Arrowroot is also a good sub for cornstarch. Health food store would carry it.
Potato starch works as a substitute for me.
Love this
We tried this recipe out for brunch this morning (“retired persons brunch!”) and it was fabulous. The only thing I did differently was to add a little nutmeg to the creamed spinach. Easy, healthy and flavorful. Will be making this again for sure!
This sounds like comfort food to me!! I LOVE potatoes and creamed spinach. Never though of putting them together. I might have to buy a waffle maker!!
I wish people who haven’t tried the recipe would stop rating it!!
