Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Egg
- 1/2 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Almond flour
- 1/4 teaspoon Baking powder (low sodium)
- 1/8 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Unsalted butter (optional)
Instructions
Start by preheating your waffle maker to ensure it's hot when the batter is ready. This step is crucial for a crispy texture.
In a small mixing bowl, crack one large egg and whisk it gently until it's evenly beaten.
Add 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese to the egg. Ensure the cheese is evenly mixed into the egg.
Incorporate 2 tablespoons of almond flour. This ingredient provides structure and a slightly nutty flavor to the chaffle.
Add 1/4 teaspoon of low sodium baking powder to help the chaffle rise a bit and become fluffy.
Enhance the flavor by sprinkling in 1/8 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients evenly.
If desired, lightly grease the waffle maker with 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter to prevent sticking, though this is optional if your waffle maker is non-stick.
Pour half of the batter into the preheated waffle maker. Close the lid firmly and allow it to cook for around 4 minutes or until the chaffle is golden brown and crisp.
Remove the chaffle carefully and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve hot and enjoy! These chaffles can be topped with your favorite toppings such as unsalted butter or a low sodium sauce of choice.
