Instructions

Instructions are for 4 servings. Please modify as needed.

  1. Mix the maple cream cheese ingredients together until they are well combined. Place in the fridge to firm up while you make your chaffles.
  2. Pre-heat your waffle maker.
  3. 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.
  4. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes to let the coconut flour absorb some moisture.
  5. 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.
  6. Gently lift the lid to check if it's done.
  7. 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.

    These are amazing. First time trying chaffles and first time using my mini waffle iron. I see good things ahead. These would be great with some berries also. I just followed the recipe and used the maple butter. Very tasty! I will make the savory ones for sandwiches or burger buns if I am ever craving bread.

    Is it 2 carbs per serving? So if I made 4 large chaffles then it would be 2 carbs a piece?

    Yes, all of our recipes list the nutrition information per serving.

    This was my second chaffle attempt. The flavor was ok but the texture was off. The cheese is tough and makes the waffle tough. I'm disappointed because I really wanted to love these.

    Well, I tried these again with blending the ingredients before pouring them on the griddle and added 1/2 tsp baking powder. Tge texture was much better and I enjoyed them.

    It's 2 net carbs per serving, or per chaffle. Each chaffle is a serving.

    OMG! These are amazing. I didnt have maple extract so I used Vanillla and it was delicious. Sure they're not fluffy and doughy like actual waffles but your not eating waffles, Its chaffles and close enough to kill the craving. Easy to make too. They are crispier and that maybe what some people aren't expecting. But I think it blends a nice crunch to the great flavor.

    The photo shows this with what looks like syrup... any idea what this is? Would love to find a maple syrup alternative.

    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.

    Can you use goat cheese as a cheese replacement.

    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!

    What can you use if you don’t have a waffle maker?

    You can attempt to make them in drops in a small skillet, almost like a pancake, but we have not tried that.
