Let’s talk about chaffles. No, not waffles—chaffles. During my keto phase back in the infamous Lockdown of 2020, I stumbled upon the best keto cult ever: the subreddit of chaffles.
What Exactly Are Chaffles?
Chaffles are a delightful fusion of cheese and waffles, crafted primarily from eggs and cheese. Using a 4-inch waffle iron like Dash, you mix either the bare minimum—just eggs and cheese—or get fancy by adding ingredients like coconut or almond flour. The chaffles subreddit community has recipes for days, catering to every palate.
My Chaffle Experimentation
In 2020, I dabbled with several chaffle recipes before venturing into creating my own. Here’s a pro tip: using cheeses other than mozzarella can result in excessive oiliness once they start cooking, leading to a greasy mess.
🧇 My Go-To Chaffle Recipe
Ingredients (Makes 4 Meals for the Week):
- Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Bob Evan’s Egg Whites
Directions
1️⃣ Spray the waffle iron with cooking spray on both the top and bottom.
2️⃣ Mix your desired amounts of shredded mozzarella and egg whites in a measuring cup. Some prefer more egg than cheese, but I lean towards the cheesy side. If you’re following my lead, the cook time will be about 3 minutes. Add a dash of salt before closing the waffle iron.
3️⃣ Boom! Now you have “cheese toast”! It’s delicious and, best of all, keto-friendly.
