KETO LOW CARB CHAFFLE RECIPE

Ingredients

  • 1 egg (or just an egg white for a crispier chaffle)
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

  • Turn waffle maker on or plug it in so that it heats and grease both sides.
  • In a small bowl, crack an egg then add the 1/2 cup cheddar cheese and stir to combine.* For a crispier chaffle use just the egg white instead of the entire egg.
  • Pour 1/2 of the batter in the waffle maker and close the top.
  • Cook for 3-4 minutes or until it reaches desired doneness.
  • Carefully remove from waffle maker and set aside for 2-3 minutes to give it time to crisp.
  • Follow the instructions again to make the second chaffle.
  • This recipe for a traditional chaffle makes fantastic sandwiches.

Notes

Variations to the Traditional Chaffle Recipe

  • Experiment with different kinds of cheese such as Monterrey Jack, Colby, mozzarella cheese, etc. You could even combine two different kinds of cheese for added flavor.
  • Add spices such as garlic powder, Italian seasoning, Everything But the Bagel seasoning, or red pepper flakes to turn it up a notch
  • I have found they are best when made with just an egg white instead of the entire egg.
  • Add a tsp of coconut flour or a tablespoon of almond flour along with 1/4 tsp baking powder and a pinch of salt.
  • Thinly chopped peppers, onions, or jalapenos can add flavor and texture.
  • Keep it sugar-free by adding keto-friendly sweeteners like Lakanto Monkfruit or Swerve to make a sweet Chaffle.
