Add the sifted flours (bread flour and cake flour), sugar, salt, and instant yeast to the bowl, keeping them from touching each other, and mix into a dough.
Once no dry flour is visible, add the butter and knead for another 10 minutes.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise at room temperature for 1 hour.
Peel the steamed purple sweet potato and mash it finely.
Mix the sugar into the mashed sweet potato to make the filling.
Divide the filling into 6 portions and roll each into a ball.
Punch down the doubled dough, divide it into 6 pieces, roll into balls, and let rest for 15 minutes.
Flatten each piece of dough with your palm, place a ball of filling from step 7 on top, and pinch the dough closed around it.
Bake in a preheated waffle maker for about 3–5 minutes.
Let the waffles cool on a wire rack.
