CHAFFLES
Chaffles are low-carb waffles, but they can be used in so many ways. You can change the texture by adding some almond or coconut flour, turn them into sandwiches, modify them into a dessert, change the flavor by using different cheese, etc. This is a basic chaffle, and it's delicious for breakfast with a pat of butter and drizzle of sugar-free syrup.

Steps:
- Preheat a waffle maker.
- Whisk egg in a small bowl and stir in mozzarella cheese.
- Pour 1/2 of the batter onto the preheated waffle maker, spreading it out from the center with a spoon. Close the waffle maker and cook until the steaming stops and the chaffle is well browned, about 3 minutes. Don't overcook, as that will make it chewy. Repeat process with remaining batter.

CHAFFLES WITH ALMOND FLOUR
Chaffles are an overnight sensation in the low carb/keto world. Adding almond flour gives them a more traditional waffle texture and helps get rid of any eggy taste. Seriously, try them, they're delicious! I use an inexpensive mini waffle maker (such as Dash® Mini Maker Waffle) which produces perfect 4-inch chaffles. So many ways to use chaffles, the sky's the limit!

Steps:
- Whisk together egg, almond flour, and baking powder. Stir in mozzarella cheese and set batter aside.
- Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Spray both sides of the preheated waffle iron with cooking spray. Pour 1/2 of the batter onto the waffle iron and spread it out from the center with a spoon. Close the waffle maker and cook until chaffle reaches your desired doneness, about 3 minutes. Carefully lift chaffle out of the waffle iron and repeat with remaining batter. Allow chaffles to cool for 2 to 3 minutes, and they will begin to crisp up.

Tips:
- Make sure your waffle maker is hot before cooking the chaffles. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
- If you don't have a waffle maker, you can cook chaffles in a skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to grease the skillet well to prevent sticking.
- If you find that your chaffles are too dry, you can add a little bit of butter or oil to the batter. You can also try adding a mashed banana or some grated zucchini to the batter for a moist and flavorful result.
- Chaffles can be served with a variety of toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream. They can also be used as a sandwich bread or as a wrap for your favorite fillings.
- Chaffles can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Conclusion:
Chaffles are a delicious and versatile low-carb food that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create endless variations of chaffles that are sure to please everyone at your table.
