Chaffle Ingredients
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup shredded cheese
- 1 tbsp scallions (finely chopped)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Oil or non-stick spray (for greasing)
Instructions
- Preheat and Grease Waffle Iron: Grease the waffle iron with oil or non-stick spray and preheat for about 2 minutes to ensure it is hot and ready for the batter.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, shredded cheese, finely chopped scallions, and salt and pepper until well combined.
- Cook First Chaffle: Pour half of the mixture onto the preheated waffle iron. Close the iron and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes, or until the egg is fully cooked and the chaffle has formed a crispy exterior.
- Cook Second Chaffle: Repeat the process with the remaining batter, pouring it onto the waffle iron and cooking for another 4 to 5 minutes until cooked through.
- Cool and Firm Up: Remove the chaffles and place them on a wire rack to cool slightly, allowing them to firm up for optimum texture before serving.
Notes
- Use a non-stick waffle iron or ensure it is well greased to prevent sticking.
- Feel free to swap scallions for other fresh herbs or spices according to taste.
- Chaffles can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in a toaster or oven for a quick low-carb snack.
- For a crispier texture, cook a little longer but be careful not to burn.
- Use full-fat cheese for best keto-friendly results and flavor.
