Dairy and Non-Dairy Keto Chaffles Recipe

What are keto chaffles? The name originated from combining cheese + waffles. That’s because the ingredients for the classic recipe includes cheese, and their typically cooked with a waffle iron, though a frying pan will work. I’ve included a dairy and non-dairy keto chaffles recipe option because a lot of folks suffer from dairy allergies, intolerance, or would simply prefer not to include more cheese in their diet.

You’ll often see posters on social networks suggest the Dash Mini (link to Amazon) because it’s inexpensive and perfect for making one serving at a time. If you decide that you really like chaffles, you might want to purchase a larger one though. In fact, I bought a larger two-waffle iron and wished I had purchased a four-waffle model.

Classic Waffles With Cheese

• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 cup almond flour (optional, for added texture)
• Pinch of salt
• Sweet or savory seasonings (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and eggs. Mix well.
3. Add the baking powder, almond flour (if using), and a pinch of salt. Mix until all ingredients are well combined. Add optional seasonings, and give it another stir.
4. Pour half of the batter into the center of the preheated waffle maker.
5. Close the lid and cook for 3-5 minutes or until the chaffle is golden brown and crispy.
6. Repeat with the remaining batter.
7. Serve the classic cheese chaffles with your favorite toppings, such as sugar-free syrup, whipped cream, peanut butter, or fresh berries. Alternatively, you can use savory chaffles to make sandwiches.

Non-Dairy Chaffles Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons almond flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (or non-dairy margarine or oil), melted
• Pinch of salt
• Other optional sweet or savory seasonings to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. In a bowl, whisk the egg until well beaten.
3. Add almond flour, baking powder, melted butter, oil, or margarine, and a pinch of salt to the beaten egg. Mix until smooth.
4. Pour half of the batter into the center of the preheated waffle maker.
5. Close the lid and cook for 3-5 minutes or until the chaffle is golden brown and cooked through.
6. Repeat with the remaining batter.
7. Serve the basic chaffles with your favorite toppings, such as sugar-free syrup, nut butter, or fresh fruit. Alternatively, you can use savory chaffles for sandwiches.

You can also make a flatbread-style chaffle in a frying pan if you don’t have a waffle iron. Leave out the butter, margarine, or oil, and use them to grease your skillet instead. They may spread out more, so you may want to use a pancake mold to make them more uniform. They generally take about two or three minutes for each side in a pre-heated pan.
