Ingredients
Scale
Chaffle Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup finely shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheddar cheese)
Instructions
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Turn on your dash waffle iron and allow it to warm up fully to ensure the chaffles cook evenly.
- Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and finely shredded cheese until fully combined and smooth.
- Prepare Waffle Iron: Lightly spray the waffle iron with cooking spray or brush with melted butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook Chaffles: Pour about one-quarter of the egg and cheese mixture onto the hot waffle iron. Close and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the chaffle turns golden brown and crisp. Remove carefully and repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve: Enjoy your chaffles as they are, topped with pancake syrup, or use them as a low-carb sandwich bread alternative.
Notes
- Use finely shredded cheese for best texture and melting.
- Cook times may vary depending on your waffle iron model; adjust as needed.
- You can substitute mozzarella with cheddar or other melting cheeses for varied flavors.
- For a crispier chaffle, cook slightly longer but watch to avoid burning.
- These chaffles freeze well; reheat in a toaster or oven before serving.
