Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- 2 large egg
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
Instructions
Preheat a waffle maker to medium heat.
In a non-stick skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, shredded mozzarella cheese, and almond flour until well combined.
Grease the waffle maker with a little butter.
Pour half of the egg and cheese mixture into the preheated waffle maker and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Carefully remove the chaffle and repeat with the remaining mixture to make a second chaffle.
While the chaffles are cooking, mix the mayonnaise with chopped chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the chaffles and bacon are ready, assemble the bacon butty: spread the chive mayonnaise over one side of each chaffle.
Layer the crispy bacon slices between the two chaffles to form a sandwich.
Cut the bacon butty in half if desired, and serve immediately while warm.
