Keto Carnivore Waffle Directions

(To ensure chaffle doesn't stick, we recommend lightly brushing iron with oil, just before spooning batter onto iron.) STIR together chaffle ingredients. (Our chaffles were all tested with freshly shredded cheese, not pre-shredded.)

Let's get specific! A chaffle is a low carb waffle that is primarily made up of mozzarella cheese and an egg. The original chaffle recipe calls for one egg and ½ cup cheese. However, there are many different variations floating around.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, almond milk, oil, and vanilla until well combined. Add the almond flour, sweetener, protein powder, baking powder, and salt and and whisk until smooth. Let the batter rest 5 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the waffle iron and grease it lightly.

Chaffles are waffles made with cheese and eggs; its funny name is a combination of the words “cheese” and “waffle”. Without any sweeteners, they taste like your favorite grilled cheese sandwich but with the texture of a crispy, crunchy waffle.

Want extra crunch? Sprinkle cheese in the waffle maker. Simply add a little bit before adding the batter, then add more on top before closing the waffle maker. This works best for savory chaffles.

Eating 1 chaffle is almost 50% of that recommended daily intake. For that reason, I definitely wouldn't refer to them as a health food, but they are not necessarily unhealthy, either. Both cheese and eggs are a great high-quality protein source, and cheese is a great source of calcium.

It's totally fine and safe to eat up to 6 eggs a day while on the keto diet. You can consume even more eggs per day occasionally, as long as you make sure that you eat your greens, healthy fats and proteins from other sources.

Chaffles Nutrition And Carb Count

But in general, assuming you use real, whole milk cheese like cheddar or mozzarella (as opposed to cream cheese or American cheese), chaffles are entirely carb-free. A typical serving size of two chaffles contains roughly: 300 calories. 0g total carbs.

Chaffles are meant to be on the smaller size so a small waffle iron, like the Dash mini waffle maker, works best, but you can also use a regular waffle maker or Belgian waffle iron, too.

How many carbs are in a keto waffle? ›

A traditional waffle can have up to 25g net carbs per waffle. This keto waffles recipe, only has 2.5 grams of net carbs each! With carbs that low you can stack a few together, add melted butter, and a drizzle of sugar-free syrup with no guilt whatsoever.

These cheesy waffles may be short on ingredients, but they are full of flavor. Eggs, bacon, canadian bacon, breakfast sausage and plenty of Sargento^® Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese are combined and made into the perfect keto-friendly breakfast.

Another option is to keep it in the fridge for up to 5 days. Once you've let the chaffles cool, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer. To reheat the chaffles place them in the toaster or you can microwave them for 30-60 seconds, or in the oven at 180/350 degrees.

Anway, chaffles can be served hot or cold. Use them in place of any bread. Make a chaffle burger, french toast, or soldiers to dip in an egg.

Some people might love classic flavors like buttermilk or Belgian waffles, while others might prefer more adventurous options like chocolate chip, blueberry, or even savory waffles with ingredients like cheese or bacon.

Make sure that your batter has about 3TBL of oil per cup of flour. Then wait for the waffle maker to be hot (so the ready light should go on - or off, whichever way yours works to indicate that it's hot), then spray both top and bottom grids with cooking spray before pouring batter on for every single waffle.

If you scrape up or pit the surface of your waffle iron, including the non-stick coating, that will create more sticking problems. The harder an item you're scraping the grids with, the more likely that is to happen. Also read the manufacturer's directions about what cleaners to avoid.

The waffle iron must be thoroughly greased with shortening or some other kind of substance, like lard or rendered chicken fat, etc, to prevent the batter from sticking. The batter itself doesn't contain enough oil or fat to prevent sticking.
