BEST KETO CHOCOLATE CHAFFLE. On the inside, soft and fluffy, deliciously crispy on the outside: this recipe is going to blow your mind! One chaffle = 2.4g net carbs. Great as an afternoon sweet treat or for a weekend brunch. Gluten free and sugar free.

WHAT IS A CHAFFLE

A chaffle is a cheese waffle. The basic keto chaffle recipe consists of egga and grated / shredded mozzarell.

The batter becomes very versatile and fluffy by adding low carb flours such as almond flour/coconut flour, baking powder and other ingredients.

It can be savoury or sweet.

Amongst people following a low carb keto diet, Chaffles are very popular. They are high in fat and very low in carbs just like fathead dough.

To make chaffles, instead of a regular sized waffle iron, it’s advisable to use a Dash mini waffle iron. They are filling!

DO CHAFFLES TASTE OF CHEESE?

Chaffles do not taste cheesy. Grated mozzarella has a neutral taste. And it is impossible to detect a cheese flavour once you mix the mozzarella with other ingredients.

Cheese is that it makes the waffles very crispy on the outside, whilst the inside stays soft which is great.

RECIPE TIP

Most chaffle recipes recommend that with a fork, you combine the ingredients and stir in the mozzarella last.

However, I have found that for a fluffy chaffle batter, using a stick blender/immersion blender makes all the difference.

INSTRUCTIONS

To a small mixing bowl, add all the chaffle ingredients. Until it gets smooth, blitz with an immersion hand blender.

To prevent sticking, brush with a little oil. To the middle of the iron, add ⅓ batter and spread out. Heat for about THREE mins.
Open the lid and for about FIFTEEN seconds, allow the Chaffle in the waffle iron to cool. With a fork without bending, you’ll then be able to lift it out.
To let it fully cool, put on wire rack. For the remaining batter, do same.
