Chaffles with just 2 Ingredients

 

#keto #cooking #chaffles #easyrecipes #breakfast #lunch #brunch #dinner #snacks

What is a Chaffle? It is a waffle made with just cheese and eggs

This is the original chaffle recipe, with just eggs and cheese. These are super easy, you can use any waffle maker. They taste so good and you can use them for bread when making sandwiches as well.

Cheese – Any shredded cheese will work here. Mozzarella is used most often because it has the most neutral flavor, but cheddar is also common. For savory versions, any other cheese from the keto cheese list will work great. Some chaffle recipes (such as the pumpkin and jalapeno popper versions below) also have cream cheese added, but I recommend this only in addition to shredded cheese, not instead of it, because the shredded cheese is what creates the crispy texture.

Eggs – The ratio is one large egg for every 1/2 cup cheese.

CHEESE TIP: If you want your cheese waffle to have a more uniform in texture, use finely shredded cheese instead of regular shredded mozzarella. I usually have regular on hand, so that’s what I used and it was still delicious!           

 Preheat. You want your waffle iron hot, so that when the batter hits the pan, it starts cooking right away and makes a crisp exterior. (See my guide below on which waffle maker to use.)

Gather ingredients. The basic ingredients are eggs and cheese

Keto Chaffle Waffle Ingredients

 1 egg
 ½ cup mozzarella cheese
 2 tablespoons almond flour
½ teaspoon baking powder

Preheat waffle maker to medium high heat.

Whisk together egg, mozzarella cheese, almond flour, and baking powder

Pour chaffle mixture into the center of the waffle iron. Close the waffle maker and let cook for 3-5 minutes or until waffle is golden brown and set.

Remove chaffle from the waffle maker and serve.

Chaffle toppings and variations

There are various toppings and flavor combinations you can add to your a basic chaffle recipe. Serve with a glass of almond milk and you are ready for breakfast! Here are a few popular chaffle topping ideas:

Chaffle pizza – after your keto chaffle is done cooking, top it with 1 teaspoon of marinara sauce, sprinkle of cheese and pepperoni. Broil in the oven until cheese is melted and bubbly

Butter

Sugar Free Syrup – my favorite keto approved syrup is by ChocZero. They have many flavors to choose from. Maple Vanilla is my favorite.

Whipped Cream

Raspberries, Strawberries, Blackberries, Blueberries

Almond butter or other nut butters, like peanut butter

Cream cheese with Everything But the Bagel Seasoning

To Make Tender Meatballs:

Do not over mix the meat mixture

Use a cookie scoop to ensure all meatballs are the same size

Ensure any add ins (like onions) are chopped small

A little bit of milk adds a lot of moisture and keeps the meatballs tender

Brown meatballs to add flavor and help them hold their shape
