WHAT IS A CHAFFLE

If you have not yet heard of a “chaffle” it is a current low carb favourite recipe on the internet and is a simple recipe made with a waffle maker. The basic keto chaffle is just eggs and grated cheese (often Cheddar or Mozzarella). I like to think of it as another form of the Fathead dough without the cream cheese. Although I am tempted to put a Fathead dough in the waffle maker and see what happens.

Almond flour is used in this chaffle bread stick recipe as I found the pure egg and cheese version a bit flimsy for my liking and I wanted something firmer. However delicious as the egg and cheese chaffle was, I needed a firmer texture. I tried coconut flour but think that is more suited for a sweeter keto chaffle and preferred the texture of my chaffles made with almond flour.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO MAKE A KETO CHAFFLE?

I happily use my regular square waffle maker. A cheap and cheerful one from of the electrical stores here in St Lucia. A lot of internet posts are raving about the Dash mini waffle maker to make a chaffle. They make a small waffle at a time and this recipe would make 2 waffles. If you are using the Dash mini waffle maker, you will need to use only half of this chaffle batter at a time to make the one. The Dash mini waffle makes circular waffles. I am happy with my rectangle shapes. It really doesn’t matter what shape the waffle maker is. I found the rectangle shape perfect for cutting into strips to make a tasty garlic cheese bread stick.

I have been using mozzarella cheese for my chaffle experiments in the kitchen. I have enjoyed some made with cheddar cheese too and found them more suitable for a savoury recipe.

HOW TO SERVE CHAFFLES

Chaffles are wonderfully versatile. This phrase amuses me as there is a British advert for potato waffles with the tagline of “waffly versatile”. If it were not for the fear of a large food company throwing their lawyers at me, I’d recycle this popular phrase with “chaffly versatile”. A chaffle can be used in many ways and is used as a low carb bread option. A popular way is to use a chaffle is to replace a burger bun. I’ve used it for my breakfast avocado toast, as a sandwich and our current favourite, a sweet pumpkin chaffle dessert.

Prep Time 3 minutes mins

Cook Time 7 minutes mins

Total Time 10 minutes mins

Ingredients

  • 1 medium egg
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese grated
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt

TOPPING

  • 2 tablespoons butter, unsalted softened
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ cup mozzarella cheese grated

Instructions

  • Turn on your waffle maker and lightly grease it (I give it a light spray with olive oil)

  • In a bowl, beat the egg.

  • Add the mozzarella, almond flour, garlic powder, oregano and salt and mix well.

  • Spoon the batter into your waffle maker (mine is a square double waffle and this mixture covers both waffle sections. If you are using a smaller waffle maker spoon half the mixture in at a time).

  • I spoon my mixture into the centre of my waffle maker and gently spread it out towards the edges.

  • Close the lid and cook for 5 minutes.

  • Using tongs, remove the cooked waffles and cut into 4 strips for each waffle.

  • Place the sticks on a tray and pre-heat the grill.

  • Mix the butter with the garlic powder and spread over the sticks.

  • Sprinkle the mozzarella over the sticks and place under the grill for 2-3 minutes until the cheese has melted and bubbling.

  • Eat immediately! (Although we have eaten this heated up but are much nicer freshly made)

      They could be used in place of almond flour or try lupin flour.

    You mention grated mozzarella cheese, have you ever used shredded instead?

      It's the same thing, just a difference in language! Just like zucchini and courgette...I flip between UK English and American English at times!

    I bought one of the mini waffle makers and already have a regular size round waffle about 6-7 inch, which one do you recommend for chaffles and what kind of grill are you referring to in this recipe?

    Reply

    • Angela Coleby

      The grill is my gas grill in the oven. I believe it's also known as a broiler? Either waffle maker will work for a chaffle.

    These look so delicious, but I don't own a waffle maker. Could they be made without one?

    • Angela Coleby

      You could try to pan fry the mixture, then cut into strips.
