Cuisine: Keto
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Optional: spices or herbs for flavor
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are at room temperature. You will need a chaffle maker or small waffle iron preheated and lightly greased.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheese, eggs, baking powder, and salt. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
- Optional: Add your preferred herbs or spices like garlic powder, dried basil, or black pepper for enhanced flavor profile.
- Lightly spray or brush the chaffle maker/waffle iron with cooking oil to prevent sticking.
- Pour approximately 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the cheese and egg mixture into the center of the heated waffle iron, ensuring even distribution.
- Close the waffle maker and cook for 3-4 minutes or until the chaffle is golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Carefully remove the chaffle using a silicone spatula or tongs, placing it on a wire rack to maintain crispness.
- Repeat the process with remaining batter, making sure to re-grease the waffle iron between each chaffle.
- Serve immediately while warm. Optional: Top with sugar-free syrup, butter, or additional savory toppings like bacon or avocado.
- Store any leftover chaffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster or air fryer to restore crispness.
Tips
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: For the best texture, make sure your eggs and cheese are at room temperature before mixing. This helps them combine more smoothly.
- Preheat Your Waffle Maker: Always preheat your chaffle maker or waffle iron to ensure a perfect, crispy finish. A hot surface will help the cheese melt and create that desirable crunch.
- Experiment with Flavors: Don't be afraid to get creative! Add your favorite spices or herbs to the batter, such as garlic powder, dried basil, or even a pinch of cayenne for a spicy kick.
- Grease Between Batches: To prevent sticking, lightly grease the waffle iron before each chaffle. This ensures easy removal and keeps your chaffles intact.
- Monitor Cooking Time: Cooking times may vary depending on your waffle maker. Keep an eye on your chaffles and cook them until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges for the best results.
- Serve Immediately: Chaffles are best enjoyed fresh and warm. Serve them topped with sugar-free syrup, butter, or savory options like crispy bacon or creamy avocado for a delicious breakfast experience.
- Store Leftovers Properly: If you have any leftover chaffles, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat them in a toaster or air fryer to bring back their delightful crispiness.
