Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1 cup diced vegetables
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or oil
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat and lightly grease the surfaces with cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the 4 eggs and whisk them thoroughly until the yolks and whites are completely combined and slightly frothy.
- Add the shredded cheese and diced vegetables to the whisked eggs, stirring gently to distribute ingredients evenly throughout the mixture.
- Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper, adjusting to your preferred taste level. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
- Pour approximately 1/4 of the egg mixture into the preheated waffle iron, making sure to spread it evenly across the surface.
- Close the waffle iron and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the eggs are set and have a golden-brown, crispy exterior.
- Carefully remove the egg waffle using a heat-resistant spatula, placing it on a serving plate.
- Repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture, creating 4 individual egg waffles.
- Optional: Garnish with additional cheese, herbs, or serve with your favorite breakfast condiments like salsa, hot sauce, or sour cream.
- Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your savory breakfast-style waffles for dinner.
Tips
- Whisk your eggs thoroughly to create a light, airy texture that will result in crispier waffles.
- Make sure your waffle iron is preheated and well-greased to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal.
- Don't overfill the waffle iron – aim for an even, thin layer of egg mixture for the best crispy results.
- Experiment with different cheese and vegetable combinations to keep the recipe exciting and personalized.
- Serve immediately after cooking to maintain the perfect crispy texture and warmth.
- If you're meal prepping, you can store these egg waffles in the refrigerator and quickly reheat in a toaster or air fryer.
- For extra flavor, try adding herbs like chives or parsley to your egg mixture, or sprinkle some smoked paprika for a kick.
