Keto Pumpkin Chaffles
Description
The Keto Pumpkin Chaffles recipe blends mozzarella cheese with pumpkin puree, beaten egg, and a touch of sweeteners and spices to create a moist waffle. Pumpkin pie spice and vanilla enhance the autumn flavor, while cooking in a waffle iron crisps the exterior but keeps the interior soft. The cheese adds a slight stretchiness and savory balance to the pumpkin sweetness. Adding pecans or sugar-free syrup as a topping brings additional texture and flavor contrast.
The batter is simple to mix and only requires a few minutes in a preheated waffle maker. Each waffle cooks for 4-6 minutes depending on your desired crispness. This recipe yields two chaffles, making it manageable for a single serving or light meal.
These pumpkin chaffles can be enjoyed as breakfast or a snack. They pair well with a variety of toppings such as butter, cinnamon, whipped cream, or roasted pecans for added warmth and crunch. The recipe suits those looking for a keto-friendly way to enjoy pumpkin flavors and waffles.
If pure maple extract is unavailable, it can be omitted without affecting the overall taste significantly. Optional toppings can be adjusted to personal preference to keep carbs low.
Ingredients
- ½ cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1 egg beaten, whole
- 1 ½ tablespoons pumpkin puree
- ½ teaspoon Swerve Confectioners Sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice see my recipe
- ⅛ teaspoon pure maple extract see notes
- pecan cinnamon, whip cream and Sugar-Free Maple Syrup for topping, optional, roasted
Instructions
- Turn on your Waffle Maker, (mine makes 4" waffles) and start preparing the batter.
- Add in all the ingredients, except for the mozzarella cheese to a bowl and whisk. Add in the cheese and mix until well combined.
- Spray your waffle plates with nonstick spray (I used coconut oil) and add in half the batter to the center. Close the lid and cook for 4-6 minutes, depending on how crispy you want your Chaffles.
- Remove and cook the second Chaffle. Serve with all or any combination of toppings including butter, Sugar-Free Maple Syrup, roasted pecans, a dusting of ground cinnamon and a dollop of whip cream.
Notes
- Omit pure maple extract if unavailable; the chaffles will still taste good.
- This recipe makes one serving consisting of two chaffles.
- Optional toppings such as cinnamon, whipped cream, roasted pecans, and sugar-free maple syrup enhance flavor and texture.
