Ingredients

2 (15 ounce) cans sweet potatoes, drained
1 cup milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
6 large egg whites
3 cups maple syrup
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Combine sweet potatoes, milk, butter, brown sugar, and vanilla in a food processor; pulse until well combined and smooth.
Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir in sweet potato mixture.
Preheat and grease a waffle maker.
Beat egg whites in a stand mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold into the waffle batter, 2 cups at a time, until well incorporated.
Scoop 1 cup batter onto the preheated waffle maker. Close the lid and cook until slightly golden and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate and repeat to make remaining waffles.
While the waffles are cooking, heat maple syrup in a pot over low heat until warm. Stir in cinnamon. Serve with waffles.
