Mom’s Favorite Chaffles

I named these mom’s favorite chaffles because they’re my go-to chaffles! These are a great choice for a breakfast or snack option and work perfectly for keto sandwiches!

Mom’s favorite chaffles are my take on perfectly versatile chaffles. I use these to make all my favorite keto sandwiches. They’re also amazing for a quick and easy snack or breakfast option. Another great thing about these chaffles is they freeze well, so you can make them ahead of time and just thaw them when you’re ready to eat them!

Let’s talk about chaffles!

If you’ve never tried chaffles, I’m so excited for you! If you have tried chaffles, I’m so excited for you to try this variation of chaffles! The word chaffle literally means cheese waffle, but it’s so much better than it sounds! Basic chaffles contain just 2 ingredients, eggs, and shredded mozzarella cheese. And while this makes wonderfully delicious chaffles, I prefer to add a couple of ingredients to make the ultimate chaffles! I do recommend you buy a block of mozzarella cheese and shred it yourself to make your chaffles. This melts and combines with the other ingredients the best. The additional ingredients we add to basic chaffles are almond flour and baking powder. These give more structure and fluffiness to our chaffles. These chaffles are quite versatile and can be used to make anything from keto sandwiches to sweet breakfasts!

How do I make mom’s favorite chaffles?

These chaffles are quick and easy to make, but there are a few things you can do to ensure yours come out perfectly! First, you’ll want to plug in your mini waffle maker to get it heating up. I love my Dash mini maker, but just recently bought the Dash multi mini waffle maker which makes 4 chaffles at a time. Oh, be still my beating heart.💕Either works perfectly for these chaffles, but the multi maker is an awesome time saver. To make our chaffles, we start with lightly beating 2 eggs. Then we add almond flour and baking powder and stir to combine. To this we add our shredded mozzarella cheese and stir to completely combine all ingredients. When making the chaffles, you’ll want to spray your waffle maker with avocado oil spray to ensure the chaffles won’t stick. I cook mine for 3-4 minutes, until they’re nicely browned.

How can I serve mom’s favorite chaffles?

You have some awesome keto options, both savory and sweet, for serving these chaffles. These chaffles make for a great snack, eaten just as they are. They are also the perfect chaffle to make all kinds of keto sandwiches, everything from keto BLT’s to tuna salad sandwiches. Some other great keto sandwich options include combining low carb deli meats with sliced cheese and topping the sandwich with lettuce, tomatoes, keto mayonnaise, and mustard. You can also use these chaffles to make keto grilled cheese sandwiches! I love to make homemade croutons, and these chaffles are perfect for that. For breakfast options, you can top these chaffles with some butter and keto jam or your favorite keto syrup, perhaps topped with some homemade keto whipped cream!

Here are some tuna salad recipes that would be perfect to make sandwiches using these chaffles!
