PRESENTATION

So here's the thing, if you love crispy breakfast foods but still want to stick to a low-carb diet, this chaffle recipe is a total game changer. Really, it is. The name "chaffle" is a fun mash-up of "cheese" and "waffle," which is exactly what you need—just eggs and cheese. Pretty simple. This dish got super popular with the keto crowd since a keto chaffle skips the flour and sugar and focuses on high protein. You can start with a basic cheese waffle or get creative. Maybe add spices or go sweet with a hint of cinnamon or cocoa. You'll get that golden, slightly moist bite that's filling and savory. So good!

In different kitchens, people are trying all kinds of chaffle recipe variations. Some folks use sharp cheddar for a bold flavor, while others go for mozzarella for a more mild, stretchy bite. Really stretchy. All you need is a coarse grater for the cheese and a waffle iron to get that tender middle and crispy edges. And listen, these chaffles aren't just for breakfast. Seriously, they are perfect as sandwich bases, burger buns, or even a keto waffle dessert with a touch of sweetener. Because a low-carb chaffle avoids grains, it's great for gluten-free eaters and anyone watching their carbs.

Preparation

How to prepare Chaffle

To prepare the chaffles, first grate the provolone cheese with a large-hole grater 1, then beat the eggs in a bowl with a whisk 2. Pour the grated cheese into the bowl with the eggs 3.

Mix everything with the whisk 4. At this point, heat a waffle iron to a medium-high temperature and brush both sides with melted butter or oil 5, then pour in the mixture using a spoon 6.

After adding the batter 7, close the waffle iron and cook for 4-5 minutes. After this time, open the iron 8 and use a spatula to remove the chaffles. Serve the chaffles hot with a pat of butter 9!

Storage

Chaffles can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Freezing is not recommended.

Advice

As an alternative to provolone, you can also choose another type of cheese depending on how you intend to consume the chaffles: for a sweet breakfast, for example, you can use pizza mozzarella which has a more neutral taste, while for a savory sandwich you can opt for cheddar!

If desired, you can flavor the batter with turmeric or paprika to add a spicy note.
