Have you ever woken up craving something crispy and cheesy and ridiculously easy to make, Because I definitely have especially on those lazy Sundays when even pouring cereal feels like too much effort so that’s how these hash brown waffles came to life.

It all began with a leftover bag of frozen hash browns and honestly, zero motivation to stand over a stove flipping anything so I spotted the waffle iron and thought—why not, The first try was a total disaster because I forgot to spray the iron which meant I basically created a potato sculpture stuck to the grid so it looked kind of cute but definitely wasn’t edible.

On the second attempt though, it was pure surprising because the edges turned golden while the inside stayed soft and that sizzling sound when it hit the hot iron? It was music to my ears.

I swear, these things are dangerous because once you take one bite, you’ll keep “just testing another” until the batch is gone and if you eat the whole thing yourself. No judgment because I’ve been there.
