How To Cook Hash Browns In A Waffle Maker Food

WAFFLE MAKER HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Turn waffle maker on medium high - high.
• Toss shredded potatoes with salt and pepper.Chef Tip: Your favorite seasoned salt works great or spice it up with a little BB all-purpose dry rub.
• Once waffle maker is hot spray with pan spray. Place a baseball size amount of potatoes in each waffle section. Spread mounds out in each section and close. Do not press down, simple walk away and let the waffle maker do the work.
• After 13-15 minutes you will have a crispy waffle hash brown. Carefully remove with tongs and spatula.

WAFFLE IRON HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Thaw the hash browns at room temperature for about 3 hours, turning the package over occasionally. (Or you may place the frozen hash browns in the fridge overnight.) When they are thawed, preheat the waffle iron to medium-low heat.
• Place half the hash browns in the middle of a stack of three or four paper towels. Bunch up the potatoes and squeeze them to force out as much liquid as possible. Place the hash browns in a large bowl, then repeat with the rest of the hash browns.
• Drizzle in the butter, then add the pepper and toss everything together.
• Coat the surface of the waffle iron with cooking spray, then add 1/2 cup of the potato mixture to each well. (You should hear them start to sizzle!)
• Sprinkle the chopped ham evenly over the potatoes then add the cheese. Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of the potatoes over the top of each waffle. Then close the lid and let 'em cook! How long the waffles take to cook depends on the heat of your waffle maker and the moisture of the potatoes. Lift the lid and check on the waffles from time to time to make sure they aren't burning. The edges and the cheese will start to crisp up and get golden, but you'll want to keep it going until everything is deep golden.
• Use a dull knife or spatula to remove the waffles. Serve them with ketchup and dig right in! These are absolutely addictive. Crispy and wonderful!
• Change Things Up!
• For a simpler hash brown, omit the cheese and ham and just put 3/4 cup
• potatoes in each well.
• Add diced onion and green bell pepper along with the ham and cheese.

• Spoon half the potato mixture into preheated waffle iron; cook until potatoes are tender and golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.

Top the cheese and ham in each section with another 1/4 cup hash browns. Close the waffle iron and cook for 15 minutes on the regular setting.

OMG HASH BROWN WAFFLES

Steps:

• defrost your frozen hash browns (you can use microwave to speed it up, make sure you use DEFROST though).
• preheat your waffle iron to medium-high (mine has a 1-5 scale for heat, I use 4).
• whisk eggs, oil, garlic, salt, pepper, onion powder, and chives. Place hash browns in a center of a clean kitchen towel, gather up edges and twist out excess water from potatoes. Stir well the wrung out hash browns, ham and cheese into the egg mixture. The mix will not be super wet (this is correct).
• when waffle iron is ready (mine has a green light that comes on), coat the iron (both sides) with cooking spray. Use a overflowing cup measure to add the mix to the waffle iron (you may have to spread it a bit with a spoon - it does NOT have to be perfect) and close the lid. Cook for about 6-7 minutes until brown and crispy (mine has a green light that tells me when ready, if yours does not just check it around 6 minutes).
• remove and serve with butter, sour cream and chives or even plain.
