Keto Chocolate Chaffle Recipe
Description
This recipe blends large eggs with shredded mozzarella cheese, almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, powdered sweetener, and vanilla extract. The batter is blended until smooth and cooked in a mini waffle maker coated with oil to prevent sticking.
The cooking process yields small, firm waffles (chaffles) with a rich chocolate taste balanced by the mild cheese and almond flour base. The texture is tender but sturdy enough to hold toppings or be used as a sandwich base.
Chaffles can be served as a dessert or snack and topped with options like whipped cream, sugar-free chocolate drizzle, fresh raspberries, or nut butters. They freeze well for up to three months and can be reheated in a toaster or waffle maker to restore crispness.
Using shredded mozzarella intended for cooking (not the soft salad type) is important to avoid excess moisture. The recipe yields about three chaffles with 4g net carbs each.
Ingredients
- 1 egg large
- ½ cup mozzarella cheese 57g (or use ¼ cup mozzarella and 2 tablespoon cream cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoon cacao powder 10g, or cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoon almond flour 18g
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1.5 tablespoon powdered sweetener
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add all the chaffle ingredients to a small mixing bowl. Blitz with an immersion hand blender until smooth.
- Heat a mini waffle maker.
- Brush with a little oil to prevent sticking. Add ⅓ batter to the middle of the iron and spread out. Cook for about 3 minutes.
- Open the lid and allow the Chaffle to cool in the waffle iron for about 15 seconds. You'll then be able to lift it out with a fork without bending.
- Place on a wire rack to fully cool. Repeat for the remaining batter.
Notes
- Use shredded mozzarella cheese suitable for cooking, not the soft type, for proper texture.
- Mini waffle maker is required to make the correctly sized chaffles.
- Chaffles store in the fridge for 2-3 days or freeze up to 3 months; reheat in toaster or waffle maker.
- Top your chaffles with whipped cream, sugar-free chocolate drizzle, berries, toasted nuts, or peanut butter.
