Ingredients:
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 large egg
2 tablespoons almond flour
1 tablespoon cream cheese (softened)
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for added flavor)
Salt and pepper to taste (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat Your Waffle Maker: Heat up your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Prepare the Batter:
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for about 30 seconds, then stir until the mixture is smooth.
Add the egg to the cheese mixture and whisk until well combined.
Stir in the almond flour, baking powder, and any optional seasonings (like garlic powder). Mix until the batter is smooth and uniform.
Cook the Chaffles:
Lightly grease the waffle maker with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Pour a portion of the batter onto the waffle maker, spreading it evenly.
Close the waffle maker and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the chaffle is golden brown and crispy. Cooking times may vary based on your waffle maker, so check the chaffle and adjust as needed.
Cool and Serve:
Carefully remove the chaffle from the waffle maker and let it cool slightly on a wire rack. This helps maintain its crispness.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
Enjoy!
Serve your chaffles as you would with traditional bread. They’re great for sandwiches, toast, or just enjoying with a spread of your choice.
Feel free to experiment by adding herbs, spices, or even a bit of shredded cheddar for different flavor profiles. Enjoy your keto-friendly bread substitute!a
