I have been seeing posts and pins for chaffles for months and it took me a while to catch on. At first I thought it was made of chicken (thus the “ch”) and that didn’t sound good to me at all. After realizing the “ch” represented cheese – well, that was intriguing. Having never owned a waffle iron, and not wanting to buy yet another unused kitchen appliance while living in a motorhome, I was still pretty reluctant.
It was probably the continued need for a bread substitute that finally led me to give it a try. I shopped on Amazon for a small waffle iron and found the Dash Mini Waffle Maker. Two days later it arrived at the campground office and apparently the staff found this tiny kitchen appliance a bit amusing. I admit – it was much smaller than I anticipated.
I decided to do an impromptu video product review of the waffle maker and the basic chaffle recipe. I honestly was shocked at how good these turned out (you may note my surprise in the video). The pizza chaffles are in the oven now and pictures soon to follow!
Chaffles
Equipment
- Dash Mini Waffle Maker
Ingredients
- 2 Eggs Beaten
- 1 Cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Crack eggs into mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly.
- Add shredded cheese and mix.
- Place 1/4 cup of mixture on hot mini waffle maker.
- Cook for 4 minutes. Chaffle should be brown.
Notes
- For this recipe I used the Dash Mini Waffle Maker (available on Amazon).
- Any kind of cheese can be used giving different flavors. Mozzarella is the most neutral flavor and best for sandwiches, pizza crust, and hamburger buns if you don’t want a strong cheese flavor.
- These can be made sweet by adding Lakanto Monkfruit or other natural sweetener.
