So everyone seems to want to know, why is it called Chaffle?

I mean, it looks like a waffle right?
You can even make this chaffle in a waffle maker.

Yes, in a way a chaffle is indeed a waffle.

However, because the main ingredient in the chaffle is cheese, it is not necessarily referred to as a waffle. This waffle has no bread or bread ingredients in it hence, it is low carbohydrate and keto diet friendly!
 

If you do not have a waffle maker you may be wondering can you make a chaffle wihtout a waffle iron.

Let me start by recommended that you use a simple waffle iron as that is what seems to work best with this recipe. Try using a single or small waffle iron like one of these.

Yes, you can make a chaffle in a skillet.

Since the batter will probably not reach the sides of a skillet, or even a griddle, the chaffle may not look the same as if you had used a waffle maker. That is, you obviously will not have the markings (little squares etc) that a waffle maker is known for and the edges will probably not brown up and get as crisp.
 

Here are some tips for making chaffles.

I mentioned above that this recipe works best when you use a small waffle maker. Try using a single or small waffle iron like one of these.

Here are some more helpful tips.

1. Yes, this recipe is for bacon and jalapeno chaffles. However, you could easily omit the bacon and jalapeno and make this chaffle plain. Or, you could use other ingredients such as chopped pepperoni and green peppers.
2. Make this chaffle more like a real waffle. You can make this seem more bread-like by adding a tablespoon of a low carb keto flour along with a pinch of baking powder.
3. Preheating the waffle iron is essential to the success of this recipe as is spraying with nonstick before heating. Also, allowing the chaffle to sit for a few minutes on a plate before serving will help it get crisp.

 

Wondering how to serve a chaffle?

Really, you can eat a chaffle the same way that you would eat a regular waffle. Try keto syrup, keto powdered sugar, or simply a bit of butter on the side.
