Instructions

Preheat a nonstick waffle iron.
In a medium bowl, combine the hash browns, cauliflower, or a mixture of both. Add the eggs, oil, flour, garlic salt, and onion powder. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
Fill the preheated waffle iron with the batter; the exact amount will vary based on the size of your waffle iron. (Keep in mind that this batter doesn’t rise or spread as much as regular waffle batter does, so you will probably need more batter than normal. If your batter is cauliflower only, really pack the cups so your waffles hold together.)
☞ TESTER TIP: For a crispier waffle, spread a thinner layer of the mixture across your waffle iron. For a thicker, fluffier waffle, use a thick layer of filling.
Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffle is crispy and golden brown or your waffle maker indicates they are done. Timing will vary by iron.
☞ TESTER TIP: If your waffles are sticking, spray your waffle iron with cooking spray before making the next batch.
Top with salsa, sour cream, ketchup, or your sauce of choice, and enjoy hot.
Leftover waffles can be frozen in a single layer then stored in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Reheat the frozen waffles in a waffle iron, microwave, oven, or air fryer.
