Cinnamon-Oat Waffles with Sweet Potato "Butter"

To make the Sweet Potato Butter, place a steamer basket in a large pot with about 2 inches of water. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, cover, and steam for about 10 minutes, until very tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl to let cool. 2. Transfer the potatoes to a food processor. Add the maple syrup, plant milk, tahini, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt (if using). Puree until smooth. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. 3. To make the waffles, combine the plant milk, applesauce, aquafaba, and vinegar in a bowl. Stir to combine. Combine the oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a food processor. Pulse until a coarse meal forms. Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well. Let the batter stand for 5 minutes. 4. Heat the waffle iron according to the manual instructions. (If using oil: Use a paper towel to lightly coat waffle maker with avocado oil.) 5. Add ½ cup of batter to each mold in the waffle iron. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Using a wooden chopstick or a silicone spoon, remove the waffle from the iron. Let cool for a moment. Serve warm with the Sweet Potato "Butter." 6.
