It doesn’t get any better than keto chaffles four ways!
Move over, cloud bread! The Chaffle has made her grand entrance.
Alright, I’m sure you’ve seen it all over social media for the past year and you’re wondering what is this craziness. You know what I’m talking about: the one and only chaffle!
We keto fans need something to keep us on track, and the chaffle is just that. With just two main ingredients, you can create ENDLESS possibilities.
I’ve put together four easy chaffle recipes for you: a crispy chaffle, a basic chaffle, a dessert chaffle, and a taco chaffle.
Tips for making keto chaffles:
- Here is that magic little chaffle makerthat we used to make the panini-style grill markers. You can also get this one that’s more like a waffle iron and is what we used for the taco chaffle. Save yourself time searching in the stores for the most popular appliance right now (it may be sold out). Just order through Target or Amazon.
- Do NOT spray your waffle maker with oil if you want a crispy texture. The cheese produces enough fat that it will not stick to the maker.
- Be patient. This is a quick process, but to get crunchy or stiff “bread”, you will need to leave it in longer than a normal waffle. The chaffle takes anywhere between 3 to 6 minutes.
- Want a Crispy Chaffle? If you want that crunch resembling toast or a toasted bun, sprinkle some cheese on the maker first. Once it starts turning golden brown and bubbling, then you can add your chaffle batter.
- Be careful to not overfill the chaffle maker or it will make a mess! The taco chaffle recipe makes a total of 4 chaffles that are a little thinner than the other chaffles so they’re more like tortillas.

Ingredients
Basic Chaffle:
- 2 eggs

Crispy Everything but the Bagel Seasoning Chaffle:
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, shredded + 1 tablespoon, divided
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded + 1 tablespoon, divided
- 1 teaspoon Everything but the Bagel Seasoning
- 2 teaspoons almond flour
Pumpkin Spice Chaffle:

Taco Chaffle:
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup Pepper Jack cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon keto taco seasoning
Directions
1
Basic Chaffle Directions
- Heat mini waffle maker (should take 30 seconds).
- Whisk 2 eggs, and 1 cup of shredded cheese in a small bowl.
- Add half the mixture to the waffle maker and let it do its magic for 2-3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining mixture. This mixture will make 2 chaffles.
2
Crispy Chaffle Directions
- Heat mini waffle maker (should take 30 seconds). Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon of each parmesan and mozzarella on the griddle and let it melt and toast for 30 seconds before adding your mixture (as listed in step 2). Use the remaining 1/2 tablespoons for the second chaffle.
- In a small bowl, add 2 eggs, 1/2 cup parmesan, 1/2 cup mozzarella, 2 teaspoons of almond flour, and Everything but the Bagel Seasoning (you can omit the seasoning if you are not a fan) and whisk.
- Pour half mixture into the waffle maker, making sure you DO NOT spill over the edge.
- Cook for 4 minutes (the longer you cook, the crispier it will be). Repeat with the remaining mixture. This mixture will make 2 chaffles.
3
Pumpkin Spice Chaffle Directions
- Heat mini waffle maker (should take 30 seconds).
- Whisk all ingredients together.
- Add half of the mixture to the waffle maker.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes (the longer you cook, the crispier the chaffle will be). This mixture will make 2 chaffles. Top with heavy whipped cream (optional).
4
Taco Chaffle Directions:
- Heat mini waffle maker (should take 30 seconds).
- Whisk together eggs, pepper jack cheese, and taco seasoning.
- Add a quarter of the mixture to the waffle maker.
- Cook for 3 to 4 minutes (the longer you cook, the crispier the chaffle will be).
- If you want to make a hard taco shell, fold the chaffle over a skewer that's across a bowl. It will keep its shape as it cools. If you want it to be an "open-faced" taco, then skip this step. This mixture makes 4 chaffles.
- Top with your favorite taco ingredients like ground beef seasoned with our keto taco seasoning, shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and sour cream. YUM!
