What is a Chaffle?
A Chaffle is a Low Carb Waffle made with only 2 ingredients… Eggs and Cheese! They can be made with any Type of Grated Cheese and can be made in many different Flavours. My Family Loves Sweet Cinnamon Sugar Chaffles, which uses Mozzarella and a bit of Cinnamon and Stevia. We also quite often make Pizza and Tuna Melt Chaffles too.
How To Make a Chaffle
To Make a Chaffle you start by preheating your waffle maker. Then in a small bowl, beat the eggs. Add the shredded cheese and mix until well combined. Pour the chaffle batter into 2 ungreased waffle maker spots. Cook for approx. 6 – 8 minutes. or until golden brown.
Chaffle Variations
The best part about the Chaffle is definitely how versatile they are. There’s so many things you can do with them. We like to use the batter to make carnivore pancakes, which my husband Loves! I often use them to make Chaffle Sandwiches. We’re always surprised at how bread like they are. Listed below are a few things we’ve made with the Chaffle batter. What Kind of Chaffles have you made?

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?
If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.
On Keto, you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from Fat, 15 to 25 percent from Protein, and 10 percent from Carbohydrates. You should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Laura Dohoney
Love them! So good and fast to make. Even hubby likes them. Wonder if you could add blueberries to the batter?
officially gluten free
Great idea Laura!!! I think I’ll give it a try for breakfast this morning 😊
Sandi
just made them….so awesome! I didn’t think anything would come close and this was it! I did use a teaspoon of cake batter flavoring and the smell alone was great!

Thanks Sandi, I definitely agree!

I bought a mini-waffle iron yesterday. After reading this comment, I added cake batter flavoring to my shopping list. Can’t wait!
Anne
I really wish I’d discovered these sooner! They’re so much better than I imagined them being. Definitely making again!

I’m so glad you liked them Anne!!
Robin Frost
Can you tell me why some sites say that you should spray you’re waffle maker with oil before you put the batter on it? Thanks for your time.

Hi Robin, There’s a lot of extra grease in the cheese. So it’s not really necessary to grease it, as long as your Waffle maker has a decent non stick coating on it. I found that plain Chaffles didn’t stick at all but when when making different flavours, (like blueberry ) the waffle maker did need to be greased a little bit. Hope that answers your question.

Can anyone please tell me how long they can be stored in the fride for.. as hubby does longhaul trucking. Would be great for sandwiches while on the road
Jessica
Hey there! These were so tasty! BUT, I used the exact waffle maker you have and it ended up making a mess! Any tips to keep it from spilling out the sides? I may try letting it set up a little before I close the lid. Anyhow, still yummy, I made the sandwich ones, I was craving a sandwich! Haha!
Christine Facchina
That’s exactly what I do when I want a nice full waffle but don’t want it to spill over. I wait a min or so to let it set up first, then slowly close the lid and careful not to push it down.
