These Baklouti Green Chili Latke Waffles taste like hash browns and potato pancakes had a crispy, spicy little brunch glow-up. The outside gets beautifully golden and crunchy while the inside stays soft and tender with rich potato flavor in every bite. The Baklouti Green Chili adds smoky warmth and subtle heat that builds slowly instead of overpowering the dish, giving the waffles that addictive “just one more bite” quality.
The olive oil helps create those deeply crispy edges everyone reaches for first, while the savory potato base keeps everything comforting and hearty. They taste incredible topped with sour cream, eggs, smoked salmon, or honestly eaten straight off the plate standing in the kitchen while nobody’s looking. Cozy, crispy, savory, and just spicy enough to wake up your brunch routine, these waffles somehow manage to feel both playful and deeply comforting at the same time — like your favorite diner breakfast got upgraded with really good olive oil and a little personality.

Heat oven to 350. Lightly oil a large baking sheet and set aside.
Coarsely grate the potatoes by hand or on the disc of a food processor, transferring to a large bowl of cold water as grated. Soak potatoes 1 to 2 minutes after last batch is added to water, then drain well in a colander. Spread grated potatoes and onion on a kitchen towel and roll up jelly-roll style. Twist towel tightly to wring out as much liquid as possible. Transfer potato mixture to a bowl and stir in eggs, Baklouti Green Chili Pepper infused olive oil, salt, pepper, baking powder, and flour. Heat your waffle iron to high heat. Once hot, coat with Baklouti Green Chili Pepper infused olive oil. Heap some latke mixture on top and spread it into an even layer. Cook until deep golden brown and then transfer to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.
