My girlfriend and I made a resolution to get healthier this year, by being low carb, high protein, for some recipes we follow keto, for others, we don't.
One recipe we've been enjoying are chaffles, these are keto waffles made of egg and cheese. I added a little almond flour for a savoury version. The texture is firm and just a little crispy. They're delicious whether you're counting carbs or not!
What you need
- 1 large Egg - 2 egg whites can be used instead.
- ½ cup shredded cheese - Finely shredded is easier to distribute in the batter than larger shreds. Any type of cheese will work and can be selected based on how you plan to use the chaffles. Cheddar cheese will give it a slightly bolder flavor. Use Pepper Jack cheese for a spicy version. On the other hand, mozzarella cheese will result in a mild taste and is perfect for a sweeter version.
- 2 tablespoons Almond Flour - finely blanched or coconut flour.
How to make it
- Preheat the waffle iron.
- Stir egg, shredded cheese, and almond flour together in a small bowl. It will be a little thick.
- Open the waffle iron and mist it with cooking spray. Transfer half the batter (which is about ¼ cup) into the waffle maker and spread it out.
- Note: If desired, use a silicone spatula to spread the batter to the edges of the waffle maker for a nice, clean edge. This is just for looks. It will taste great either way.
- Allow the chaffle to cook for about 4 minutes. Remove with silicone tongs. Repeat the process with the rest of the batter! After removing them, they will continue to crisp and firm for a few minutes.
