Preheat your waffle maker on medium-high heat.
In a mixing bowl, crack 1 large egg and whisk it until frothy.
Add 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese to the egg and stir until well combined.
Mix in 1 tablespoon almond flour, 0.25 teaspoon of baking powder, 0.125 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of garlic powder. Stir the mixture until fully incorporated.
Lightly coat the waffle maker with the butter using a basting brush to prevent sticking.
Pour half of the chaffle batter into the preheated waffle maker, spreading it evenly to the edges.
Close the waffle maker and cook for about 4 minutes until the chaffle is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully remove the chaffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the chaffles hot. They can be enjoyed plain, with sugar-free syrup, or as a base for a sandwich.
