Instructions
- Mix the maple cream cheese ingredients together until they are well combined. Place in the fridge to firm up while you make your chaffles.
- Pre-heat your waffle maker.
- Place the eggs, mozzarella cheese, coconut flour, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and baking powder into a mixing bowl and beat to combine. You could also blend the batter with an immersion mixer for a smoother consistency.
- Set aside to rest for 5 minutes to let the coconut flour absorb some moisture.
- Lightly grease your waffle iron and evenly spoon the mixture over the bottom plate, spreading it out slightly to get an even result. Close the waffle iron and cook for approximately 6 minutes.
- Gently lift the lid to check if it's done.
- Serve warm with a dollop of maple cream cheese.
Tips!
The original recipe makes four large chaffles or 6 mini chaffles.
A large waffle maker takes around 6 minutes and the mini waffle maker takes 3 minutes per chaffle.
These chaffles are best eaten straight away but can be frozen and reheated.
Maple extract flavored with stevia can be purchased from sites like Amazon and some specialty stores. Do read the labels as some maple extracts can have non-keto friendly sweeteners like malitol, or even real maple syrup.
Yes, all of our recipes list the nutrition information per serving.
Is it 4 chaffles per serving ?each chaffel has 2 carbs or the 4 chaffles has 2 grams In total ?
It's 2 net carbs per serving, or per chaffle. Each chaffle is a serving.
We don't currently have a syrup recipe, but many people will use melted butter with a little maple extract and optional sweetener to make a syrup.
Due to the texture differences, I'm not sure that goat cheese would work here. But if you decide to try it, let us know how it turns out!
You can attempt to make them in drops in a small skillet, almost like a pancake, but we have not tried that.
