Everything You Need to Make Keto Twins Chaffle
When it comes to chaffles, every ingredient has a job to do — from providing structure to ensuring flavour. Since this is a keto-friendly recipe, the choices here are deliberate, balancing nutrition with taste. Here’s what goes in and why:
-
Eggs (2 large, beaten): The glue of the batter. Eggs hold the ingredients together, add moisture, and give the chaffle its soft interior.
-
Sharp Cheddar Cheese (1 cup, shredded): The backbone of flavour and crispness. Cheddar melts beautifully, creating a slightly crunchy edge while also enhancing savoury richness.
-
Almond Flour (¾ cup, unsweetened): A low-carb alternative to regular flour. It lends structure to the chaffle while keeping it light and keto-friendly.
-
Baking Powder (1 teaspoon): Ensures a little lift, preventing the chaffle from being too dense. It helps achieve that slight fluffiness inside.
-
Fresh Herbs (1 tablespoon, parsley or chives): These add freshness and a subtle layer of flavour that balances the richness of cheese and eggs.
-
Salt (¼ teaspoon): A small but essential addition to bring out the flavours and make the overall taste more balanced.
Easy Way to Make Keto Twins Chaffle
Cooking chaffles is straightforward, but paying attention to each stage ensures a crisp, well-textured result. Here’s a breakdown you can follow with ease:
Step 1: Prepare the Dry Mix
In a mixing bowl, combine shredded cheddar cheese, almond flour, baking powder, chopped herbs, and salt. Stir well until everything is evenly distributed. This step ensures that the dry ingredients don’t clump together later when the eggs are added.
Step 2: Add the Eggs
Pour the beaten eggs into the dry mixture. Mix thoroughly until you get a smooth, thick batter. The consistency should feel cohesive, with the cheese and flour evenly bound by the eggs.
Step 3: Heat the Waffle Maker
Preheat your waffle maker and lightly grease it with non-stick spray or a thin brush of oil. This prevents sticking and ensures the chaffle crisps properly. The waffle maker should be hot before you pour the batter in.
Step 4: Cook the First Batch
Spoon half the batter into the centre of the hot waffle maker, spreading gently with a spatula to cover the mould. Close the lid and cook for about 3–4 minutes. You’ll notice steam rising and the aroma of toasted cheese filling the kitchen — a good sign that the chaffle is crisping up.
Step 5: Remove and Repeat
Open the waffle maker carefully once the indicator light signals readiness, or when the waffle releases easily from the plates. Lift the chaffle out using tongs or a fork and place it on a wire rack. This prevents steam from making it soggy. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Step 6: Serve Fresh
Enjoy the chaffles hot, straight off the rack, for maximum crispness. You can eat them as they are or pair them with toppings of your choice, depending on whether you want a savoury snack or a meal base.
