Keto Chaffle / Waffle Round Up

In a very short period of time it seems that the keto chaffle, that’s cheese + waffle, sensation has taken the keto world by storm!

For those following a keto diet, reducing the amount of carbohydrates you eat in a day means passing on bread, waffles, pancakes and other high carb items. You can find specialty low carb replacements online but there were few options of making something easily yourself.

Enter the keto chaffle.

Cheese + Waffle = Chaffle

What Is A Chaffle?

The basic recipe is simply a mixture of shredded cheese and beaten eggs cooked in a waffle maker. The shredded cheese gets crispy in the waffle maker and the egg puffs up to provide some body to the waffle. They are sturdy enough to use as bread and the first recipes were used to create breakfast sandwiches (bacon/sausage patty with eggs sandwiched between two chaffles). But they have evolved into much more than that!

These delicious keto chaffles can be made savory as well as sweet. Chaffles just aren’t for breakfast! Try some of these delicious chaffle recipes today.
