Free Printable: Low Carb & Keto Food List
Get It NowThis is the post you’ve been waiting for… my complete guide to chaffles! I’m spilling all of the details: what they are, why everyone is obsessed, and my best chaffle recipes. This includes the basic chaffle recipe I always seem to come back to, plus four additional flavors — both savory and sweet. I’ll also tell you about all my tricks and tips I’ve learned along the way!
I found out about the concept of chaffles from my Facebook support group and several long forum threads many years ago. They’ve taken the keto world by storm! (FYI: I’ve also heard some people refer to them as “okie eggos”.)
What Is A Chaffle?
Cheese + waffles = chaffles! Fun, right? The chaffle recipes I saw originally were made from just cheese and eggs, but I found these to be a bit too eggy. Instead, making them with almond flour and psyllium husk powder (in addition to the eggs and cheese) makes this low carb waffle taste much more like a regular one — so much so that my husband and kids could hardly believe they were keto!
Why You’ll Love My Chaffle Recipe
- Not eggy at all – The original formula I saw on forums was 1/2 cup cheese + 1 egg, which was good, but too eggy for me. So, I made some tweaks that I think make a far superior, best chaffle recipe without that eggy taste!
- Perfect waffle texture – Crispy on the outside? Check! Chewy on the inside? Check! I do enjoy my almond flour waffles, coconut flour waffles, and protein waffles, but this is the waffle I make the most.
- Quick and easy – These use simple ingredients and are ready in just a few minutes.
- Low carb, gluten-free, and keto friendly – Just 2g net carbs each!
- Different flavors – I’ve made 5 different chaffle recipes to choose from, so you can decide if you’re in the mood for savory or sweet.
- Great for meal prep – Make a big batch on the weekend and freeze for nearly instant satisfaction whenever you feel like it.
Ingredients & Substitutions
This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for chaffles, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card below.
2 Ingredient Chaffle:
This is the original chaffle recipe, with just eggs and cheese. Like I said, I think this tastes a little eggy, but is the simplest version.
- Shredded Cheese – Any kind will work. Mozzarella is used most often because it has the most neutral flavor, so it’s particularly great for neutral or sweet flavors. For savory versions, any other cheese from the keto cheese list (cheddar is common) 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: For a more uniform in texture, use finely shredded cheese instead of regular.
I usually have regular on hand, so that’s what I used and it was still delicious!
The Best Basic Chaffle:
To step up your chaffle recipe to taste more like a traditional waffle, this is the one to make! It’s similar to what people sometimes call a “wonder bread chaffle”. The taste is very neutral, not sweet or savory, and bread-like, making them great for sandwiches.
- Eggs & Cheese – The same as the 2 ingredient version above.
- Almond Flour – Only 2 tablespoons, but this addition makes them taste so much more like real waffles! Be sure your flour is blanched and super finely ground for the best texture; Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour is the one I always use.
- Psyllium Husk Powder – Adding just 1/2 a teaspoon makes your chaffles more chewy. Golden flaxseed meal is also fine to substitute.
- Baking Powder – Helps make the result less dense. Make sure to use baking powder, not baking soda, or you’ll get a terrible aftertaste.
Common Substitutions:
These are pretty forgiving with substituting ingredients. Here are some options I’ve tested:
- Eggs – If you can’t have eggs, you can substitute a flax egg in any chaffle recipe. I have not tested other egg substitutes, but let me know if you find a different one that works for you.
- Cheese – Vegan cheese substitutes should work in place of shredded cheese or cream cheese. Check labels to make sure that the carb count is still low.
- Almond Flour – This is not required for all versions, but my basic one does use it to improve texture. You can substitute coconut flour in place of the almond flour, but the amount will NOT be the same. Use 1 teaspoon of coconut flour to replace each tablespoon of almond flour in any chaffle recipe, or vice versa.
How To Make Chaffles
This section shows step-by-step photos together with the instructions, to help you visualize the recipe. For full instructions, including amounts and temperatures, see the recipe card below.
- Preheat. You want your waffle iron hot, so that when the batter hits the surface, it starts cooking right away and makes a crisp exterior. You can gather your ingredients while it preheats.
- Mix. Stir or whisk together all your chaffle ingredients to make the batter. You can make the basic version above, or see my flavor options below! (As always, amounts are on the recipe card at the bottom.)
- Cook. Scoop the batter into the waffle maker to cover the surface well. Cook until browned and crispy. They will crisp up more as they cool.
Flavor Variations
Once you know how to make chaffles the basic way, it’s really easy to experiment and change them up! Here are some of my favorite flavors:
- Garlic Parmesan – Mozzarella, parmesan, egg, minced garlic (or garlic powder), Italian seasoning, and baking powder. These are like garlic bread in waffle form. I like topping them with extra melted mozzarella, grated parmesan, and a touch of parsley.
- Cinnamon Sugar (Churro) – Mozzarella, egg, almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, butter, Besti, cinnamon, and vanilla. Who doesn’t love churros?! You can eat these whole, or for a more churro-like experience, cut them into sticks.
- Pumpkin – Cream cheese, mozzarella, egg, Besti, coconut flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and vanilla. I like to use homemade pumpkin pie spice for these, but store bought works as well. A dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and some keto maple syrup makes them just perfect.
- Jalapeno Popper – Cream cheese, cheddar, egg, baking powder, bacon bits, and jalapenos. Many of my readers have asked me for spicy chaffles, so I made these jalapeno popper flavored ones! Melted cheddar, bacon bits, and a couple jalapeno slices make the perfect topping.
- Pizza Chaffles – These are based on my basic chaffle recipe, with added seasonings and pizza toppings (I love marinara, mozzarella, and pepperoni).
- Chocolate Chaffle – A sweet cream cheese center sandwiched between two chocolate waffles… they remind me of Oreos! If you prefer chocolate chip instead of all chocolate, make the cinnamon sugar recipe, but omit the cinnamon and add a couple tablespoons of sugar-free chocolate chips.
Recipe Tips And Tricks
- Batter contains cream cheese? Melt it first. My basic chaffle recipe doesn’t include cream cheese, but the sweet chaffles and the savory jalapeno popper ones do. This step just ensures that we can stir it into the batter. You can melt the cream cheese in a small bowl in the microwave or a double boiler. It doesn’t need to be piping hot, just warm so that you can stir it.
- Batter contains coconut flour? Let it sit for a few minutes. This will allow it to thicken to the right consistency before cooking.
- Extra sensitive to eggy flavor? Use egg whites only. I don’t find this necessary, but you can replace the egg with 1 1/2 egg whites (about 3-4 tablespoons) in any of my chaffle recipes.
- 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. I don’t recommend it for sweet ones, because cheese that’s not mixed into the batter will make them too salty.
- Your chaffle is done when steam is no longer coming out the sides. Some waffle makers also have a light that will tell you it’s done, but it’s not always perfect. If you have trouble removing your waffle, most likely it needs to cook for a bit longer.
- Cool slightly to crisp up and get more sturdy. Once the waffles cool from hot to just warm, any eggy taste diminishes and they get more crispy. The sweet chaffles in particular tend to be more fragile, so letting them cool in the (open) waffle maker for a bit can also help you remove them more easily.
- Crisp more using other methods if you like. If you want them extra hot or even more crispy after cooling, you can quickly fry them on the stove top, or pop them in the air fryer, toaster, or oven afterward.
Chaffle Maker Options
I own two types of waffle makers and tested this chaffle recipe in both, as well as using the batter without a waffle maker altogether. Here are your main options and how much batter to put in each:
- Dash Mini Waffle Maker – This mini waffle maker works great for 4-inch sandwich rounds, plus it makes a good serving size overall. I used it for all the ones pictured in this post, and I actually own two of them so that I can make more at once. Use 1/4 cup of batter per chaffle.
- Belgian Waffle Maker – The classic waffle iron size will work well for the flavored varieties, as the recipes have a bit more batter than the basic one. I recommend cutting them into quarters, as the large size is way too filling whole. Use 1/2 to 2/3 cup of batter per chaffle. A standard-sized waffle maker should also work fine, but you may need to adjust the amount of batter.
- Without A Waffle Maker – If you don’t have a waffle maker at all, you can cook this batter the same way you would keto pancakes! You won’t get the crunchy ridges, but they will still be delicious. Once you’ve mixed your batter, spread it onto a greased, hot nonstick pan over medium heat. (It’s typically too thick to pour.) Use 2 tablespoons of batter for small pancakes, or 1/4 cup for large ones. Cook until golden brown, then carefully flip and repeat on the other side.
Nutrition Info & Carb Count
The calories and carbs in chaffles will vary depending on which flavor you make. The chart below shows the nutrition info for all the different versions I made in this post.
Flavor | Calories | Net Carbs | Fat | Protein |
---|---|---|---|---|
Basic chaffle | 208 | 2g | 16g | 11g |
Garlic parmesan | 182 | 2g | 11g | 16g |
Cinnamon sugar | 179 | 2g | 14g | 10g |
Pumpkin | 117 | 3g | 7g | 7g |
Jalapeno popper | 231 | 2g | 18g | 13g |
TIP: The nutrition info listed above is always for 1 chaffle (for easy scaling), but sometimes you could have two, such as for a sandwich or full meal.
The basic and garlic parmesan chaffle recipes make 2 mini waffles each. The cinnamon sugar (churro), pumpkin, and spicy jalapeno popper recipes make 3 each.
Storage Instructions
- Store: Once you’ve let your waffles cool, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Freeze: Chaffles keep in the freezer for up to 6 months, so I love to meal prep them and keep a stash in my freezer at all times! They reheat beautifully, straight from frozen.
- Reheat: You can reheat these in the toaster, toaster oven, skillet, or conventional oven at 350 degrees F. I prefer the toaster, which is the fastest and easiest, and gets them crispy. Avoid the microwave, as the result is too soft, though my daughter likes them this way.
FYI: Chaffle recipes that contain only egg and cheese, without any almond or coconut flour, will be a bit less sturdy in the toaster.
If they are too floppy for the toaster, you can try the oven instead.
Serving Ideas
Like keto bread, chaffles are kind of like a blank canvas, because you can do so many things with them. They are even better with toppings or as sandwiches! The way you serve them partly depends on the flavor. Here are some ideas:
- Make a chaffle sandwich using the basic chaffle recipe. I often go for turkey, mayo, lettuce, and tomato, shown below. They are also delicious to have as a breakfast sandwich with oven baked bacon, egg, and cheese. Or use them as a bun for a juicy burger. If you want your sandwich to be reminiscent of a bagel and don’t want the effort of making keto bagels, add some everything bagel seasoning to the basic batter instead.
- Drizzle with syrup or spread with jam. Wholesome Yum Keto Maple Syrup or my recipe for sugar-free chia jam are both delicious on sweet chaffles! A dollop of sugar-free whipped cream also tastes great.
- Add melted cheese and toppings. For savory chaffles, like garlic Parmesan or jalapeno popper, I like to melt some extra cheese on top and sprinkle with garnishes.
- Cut cinnamon churro waffles into sticks and serve in a little basket like this. So cute! Sometimes I dip them in sugar-free chocolate syrup.

Instructions
Tap on the times in the instructions below to start a kitchen timer while you cook.
Instructions:
-
Preheat your mini waffle iron for about 5 minutes, until hot.
-
If the recipe contains cream cheese, place it into a bowl first. Heat it gently in the microwave (~15-30 seconds) or a double boiler, until it’s soft and easy to stir.
-
Stir together all the chaffle batter ingredients (everything except toppings, if any), including the cream cheese from the previous step if the version you are making has it.
-
Scoop enough of the chaffle batter into the waffle maker to cover the surface well. (That's about 1/2 cup batter for a regular waffle maker and 1/4 cup for a mini waffle maker.)
-
Cook until browned and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. (See my tip in the post above about other ways to tell they are done without opening the waffle maker!)
-
Carefully remove the chaffle from the waffle maker and set aside to crisp up more. (Cooling is important for texture!) Repeat with remaining batter, if any.
Special instruction for churro chaffles only:
-
Stir together Besti and cinnamon for topping. After the chaffles are cooked and no longer hot, brush them with melted butter, then sprinkle all over with the cinnamon "sugar" topping (or dip into the topping).

0Wondering if ground flax seed could sub for the pysllium husk? Tastes so much better!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Bonnie, Yes, you can, but the psyllium in this is such a small amount that you can’t taste it. It’s only for improving texture. I’ve tried them with both flax and psyllium, and psyllium does make a slightly better texture for this recipe.
Kat
0Thank you! I come to this page every time I make chaffles. So good!
Theresa
0You are my hero!
I have finally, FINALLY found something crispy! As a meatless low carber, I never thought I would see the day. Your tip to sprinkle cheese before and after the pouring the batter is brilliance! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Brenda
0Made the basic chaffles recipe which I have used many times before. I love how versatile it is. I made chaffles pizzas with it. Next time I might try making fathead dough and putting that in the waffle maker but this was great. I was making regular pizza for the rest of the family and didn’t want to make a full batch of fathead dough so this was my solution. I might add some spices to the chaffles mix to make garlic bread. So many options!
Beverly
0OMG!!!!! I made myself an egg and bacon sandwich with the basic recipe. I think I went to heaven. You are a genius. This was even better than the bagels. I can’t wait to make the sweet version. Thanks so much.
Kat
0Amazing! The churro chaffle is beyond delish. No eggy taste at all. Crispy and yummy. I’m going to make several this weekend as well as some savory options. Thank you!
Diane Hall
0I am in the UK, and just purchased a waffle machine. Tried a few recipes and weren’t great! Either very soggy, or overflowed and still tasted awful! Just tried two of your recipes and they are amazing. thank you so much, really appreciate all your delicious recipes!
From, Diane, UK
ANNE from Oz
0A Bonza set of recipes thank you so much
Debra McBride
0The best chaffles hands down! Easy to make. Very crispy and delicious.
Doreen
0Love the chaffle recipes, I have made regular, cheese, garlic and chocolate. They are easy and delicious

0These are amazing!
Amber
0Super excited to try these! Do you have the regular amount of carbs? Like for diabetics to carb count for insulin doses.
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Amber, The full nutrition facts are listed under the recipe, including total carbs. I hope this helps!

0I bought a waffle maker so I could make keto waffles. I made the coconut flour waffles first and I was very happy. Then I discovered chaffles, which in my opinion are so much closer to the real thing. How did they escape my attention all these years!? I think it was my lack of owning a waffle maker that made me disregard them. I made mine without psyllium husk powder and can’t imagine it would be better with it. I did the basic recipe minus psyllium and added 1.5 tsp of erythritol. I cooked it in a ceramic Belgian waffle maker. One (2) mini serving recipe makes one Belgian waffle. Making for my husband and myself, I mixed one recipe worth, put the entire thing in the waffle maker, which was the perfect amount of batter and then repeated. Pro-tip, make sure to cover all the squares with batter so you don’t have holes in your waffles.
What REALLY made me happy was the wholesome yum maple syrup I ordered at the same time as my waffle maker. O.M.G. Game Changer! I have been gluten free and low carb since 2013. So I haven’t had waffles since at least that long, probably longer. I’ve made the occasional green banana flour pancake and used real maple syrup as a very carb-y once a year treat. The wholesome yum maple syrup tastes so close to the real thing. I can have pancakes/waffles regularly now! SO HAPPY! AND in ketosis. Make the keto waffles. Get the syrup. You will be happy. Thank you so much for bringing both to my attention. xoxo
Donna
0Can I make these ahead and freeze. Then use toaster to warm and crisp them up?
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Donna, Yes, that will work great! Enjoy!
Ginny
0I am impressed! Got in my dash and decided to try the churro recipe. OMG. absolutely perfect. I couldn’t tell the difference from a regular waffle, except these tasted better. Thank you so much!
Jay B Alhadeff
0is it possible to make these with just egg whites and no egg yolks? im allergic to egg yolks.
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Jay, I have not personally tried this recipe without the egg yolks, but it should work. Please let us know if you try it.
Leslie
0I made the basic chaffle recipe and was pleased with the results. Great texture and taste. I had some corned beef leftover and made Reubens using the chaffles as the bread. My husband was so happy. I’ll make the other chaffle recipes soon. Thank you so much.
Deb Conner
0I made the basic recipe using the mini Dash pizelle maker for sandwiches, They were excellent. Can’t wait to try the cinnamon version in the mini Dash waffle stick maker. Thanks Maya for making these simple but delicious keto recipes.
Kathleen Hendricks
0Just had the basic and it’s absolutely delicious. Thank you very much. This was my first chaffle. I think hubby would have liked it but didn’t like the orange flavor of the psyllium husk. I”ll try it next time without that. In any case I made him regular waffles.
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Kathleen, You can find unflavored psyllium husk powder here!
Donnie Schwirtlich
0Really like it- especially the jazzed up versions.
Maxii
0I love all your chaffle recipes so happy i book marked your site before my chaffle maker came ty
Hope
0The basic chaffle recipe is THE BEST! At first, I was a little worried because it smelled eggy, but it certainly didn’t taste eggy. I made a ham and cheese sandwich and it was absolutely amazing! Thank you, Maya!!!
Sandie
0I made the churros ones and OMG….THE YUMMIIEST!!
Zelide V Cain
0Absolutely amazing! No joke! Tastes like I’m eating a waffle and so so easy to make that I pretty much mix the ingredients, cook and foil it up. I’m trying the churro next because if the original was that good, I could only imagine how the others would taste. Also, even my kids loved it! Reminder though, don’t let it cool down too much cause then it gets chewy.
Melissa
0Made the churro chaffles!!! Omg so yummy!!
Ivy
0My first time trying and making chaffles with success. I’m so glad I found this recipe. I try to made them before following a completely different recipe and they weren’t good at all. Bit this ones, OMG!!! DELICIOUS!!!
Tara
0This will be the only chaffle recipe I use. No eggy taste. And the closest thing to taste like real waffle.
Thank you !!!!!
C

Gerri
0Happy Sunday!
I like the taste but can’t figure out what I need to change so that Chaffles aren’t falling to pieces. I’m literally scraping out the pieces/chunks and I did put cooking oil on, and heat up waffflemaker well on my second try. Suggestions? Thanks
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Gerri, These chaffles should not be falling apart. Are you making any substitutions? Does your batter look like it does in the images on this page?
Gerri
0They are falling apart when I remove them. Wonder if a Belgian waffle maker is too deep but don’t know what else to do. Only substitution coconut oil for butter.
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Gerri, Oh yes, if you are using a deep Belgian waffle maker, that could be causing the issue. This mini waffle maker is the one I use for chaffles.
Dini
0Am I going crazy or does the jalapeño popper chaffle not need almond flour? It made such a mess in my waffle maker. Still really good, just wayyyyy too much “batter” and it’s more of a cheese crisp than the basic chaffle texture. The recipe can definitely make 3 mini chaffles.
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Dini, The Jalapeno Chaffle recipe does not include any almond flour. This recipe is a little runnier than the others, but if you prefer you can add a tablespoon of almond flour to thicken the batter.
William Retallack
0My mini-chaffle maker arrived from Amazon this week, I ordered it after finding your recipes, and I tried it out this morning. To be honest keto recipes have often disappointed but these were wonderful. We just tried the basic recipe today with a little grass fed butter and some Lakanto syrup. oh my gosh they were so satisfying. Thanks so much!
Hbevo
0My goodness, these are MAGIC! So good that I had to write a review, which I’ve never done before. I didn’t have any psyllium, so I used Metamucil instead, which worked like an absolute charm and I didn’t taste any strange orangey-ness. Used the basic recipe and added a few splashes of cinnamon powder. I doubled the batch and it made three regular sized square waffles. Topped with some sugar free maple syrup and whipped cream.
YUMMO!
Deanna
0Do you spray your waffle maker first with Pam?
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Deanna, If your iron is coated with a non-stick, then it’s not necessary to grease it first. If it’s not then I would spray with your favorite non-stick spray before using.
Morgan
0This recipe was amazing!!! It was quick and easy and I loved the little notes. My whole family enjoyed this very much.
Vinnie Koehler
0These are a lifesaver!!!!! I make them all the time. I cut one in half across, and I make ham and cheese sandwiches, but I grill them with the waffle side on the inside and the cut side on the outside, so it grills like regular bread, and the waffle side helps to keep the ham and cheese inside. I also put caraway seed in it sometimes and it makes a great Reuben sandwich. I also use it instead of breadcrumbs by putting them in my food processor and making them like breadcrumbs and I put them in meatloaf or anything that requires breadcrumbs. Croutons also work with these. I love the churro recipe and keep them in the freezer. They are amazing and help me stay in ketosis. Great Job!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
Karen
0Just bought my first Chaffle Maker and soooo looking forward to trying these recipes. Looks yummy!!
Charlotte
0I tried the churro recipe without cinnamon (because my daughter just doesn’t like cinnamon) and added cream cheese. She loved it and can’t wait for me to make more! She told me it reminded her of taiyaki. The only problem I had was that some of the batter leaked out of the maker. This was my first time making waffles so I will adjust the amount I put in the waffle maker next time.Thank you for the recipes!
Hope
0Wow, these are perfect chaffle recipes! They are so easy to make and all ingredients are usually on-hand.
My favorite is the cinnamon churro – kinda reminds me of french toast. YUM!! I’d give more stars if I could! Thank you for these amazing recipes!
Julie
0I have tried both the basic chaffle recipe and the cinnamon. I added garlic and italian spices to the basic and they came out tasting like a delish garlic bread. Love them. Unfortunately, I felt the cinnamon had day too much sugar substitute and were barely edible. I will try them again with 1/2 the sugar substitute. Also, there’s no need to sprinkle more on top of the waffle…..just too much. Maybe a few pecans for crunch.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Julie, I’m glad you liked the basic one. For the sweet version, did you use the same sugar substitute? They vary widely in sweetness, so if you used something else, it might have turned out way too sweet. I don’t find mine turn out too sweet with Besti.
Andrea
0Made a BLT with the sandwich chaffle, it was delicious! Thank you!
Mary
0Need a good keto chaffle recipe without the cheese. Your chaffle’s all look so good just can’t have the cheese.
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Mary, A chaffle is a waffle recipe using egg and cheese. If you need to skip the cheese, you can either use dairy-free shredded cheese or skip the chaffle recipes and make keto waffles. Here are a few waffle recipes that do not use cheese or cream cheese Easy Vanilla Protein Waffles, Keto Paleo Almond Flour Waffles, and Flourless Low Carb Waffles.
Megan
0Tried the churro chaffle. It is sooooo delicious and a great cure to a serious sweet tooth!
Sandra
0Jalapeño Popper version. Easy to make and they taste great. I don’t have a mini waffle maker so I used a regular waffle maker and made 1 large instead of 2 minis. The simplicity will definitely have me making these again. Will try the other versions soon.
Darren
0Hi there, what is the conversion rate from cups to ounce, please?
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Darren, 1/2 cup is 4 ounces, 3/4 cup is 6 ounces.
Heather Herrmann
0Can you make some ahead for a weeks meals? Do they store in the refrigerator well?
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Heather, Yes, chaffles work great for meal prep. They can be frozen or stored in the fridge and re-heat beautifully!
Nikki Miller
0These all look so great, can’t wait to try! I like to meal prep for work days, so I’m wondering if they freeze well?
Wholesome Yum M
0Hi Nikki, Yes! These freeze great and work well for meal prep!
Ernesto
0LOVE IT! I did the churro chafle and I was amazed. Followed the instructions to the T and it was great. Paired it with the classic Keto breakfast, eggs and bacon. Topped the chaffle with a dollop of whipped cream and cinnamon sprinkles. It was so satisfying. Making this one mine and can’t wait to try the others as well.
Maddie
0I have made several of these now and they are absolutely delicious. I even tried onion to make a onion one and it was super good! Much better than just throwing on cheese and a pickles or jalapeños!! I ordered some psyllium husk powder and looking forward to trying that with the recipes.
Eric
0Avocado and egg Chaffle. Make a cheddar Chaffle with some seasoning. A 1 or 2 egg bacon omelet. Sprinkle more cheese on the omelet
Avocado spread. Spread avocado on a hot waffle. Top with an omelet.
Pat
0Is there a substitute for erythritol? I am new to keto and do not have access to that ingredient.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Pat, Any keto sweetener will work. My favorite is actually monk fruit allulose blend, which you can get here.
Kim Y
0Made the Jalapeño chaffles are they were amazing!!! Making them again tonight and possibly making the churros too!
Deborah Hudders
0OMG! If there is a Nobel for “Saving Other Peoples Sanity,” I nominate you! This recipe was amazing! I didn’t have the psyllium husk or baking powder, but I just made the basic chaffle. I let it cool a little then said, “Why not?” and added a little butter and sugar-free syrup. WOW! It really did taste like a waffel (in my opinion). I can’t wait to try the other variations. Thank you!
Synthavanh
0Made the basic and the churro recipes. Both delicious!! My picky husband even liked them!! They are very versatile!
Kathy
0Just made the cinnamon ones and doubled the recipe and reduced the sweetener by a 1/3 , and they came out great! Not eggy at all! These are my first chaffles and can’t wait to make more!
Kristine
0The cinnamon sugar ones were so good! I’m looking forward to making the other flavors, too. It’s the first time I used the Dash mini and made a chaffle. The size is just like the store-bought frozen waffles so they’re not as ‘mini’ as I was picturing. They are very filling and since they’re low carb I didn’t go back for 4 more. The next time I’ll do like others have and make a big batch so I can freeze some. Thank you, Maya!
Cedens
0Still tasted like crispy cheesy, egg to me. Definitely not a great substitute for a traditional waffle for me personally but crispy cheese is tasty!
LaDale Ray
0Agreed!
Kristine
0Could you let them cool and reheat them as Maya suggests above? That may help with the eggy flavor.
Cora
0I use savory chaffles as a bread substitute not a replacement for waffles.
