🧇 Crispy Carnivore Chaffles
Simple, satisfying, and zero carb — made with eggs and cheese, crisped to perfection in a mini waffle iron.
🍽 Servings: 2–3 mini chaffles
🕒 Time: 5 min prep | 5–10 min cook
🧂 Ingredients:
-
3 large eggs
-
¾ cup shredded cheese (quesadilla cheese, mozzarella, cheddar, Colby Jack — whatever melts well)
-
Butter, for topping
-
Optional: Sugar-free syrup (if tolerated — not strict carnivore)
👩🍳 Instructions:
-
Preheat your mini waffle maker (like the Dash).
-
In a blender (or just a bowl), combine eggs and shredded cheese. Blend until smooth, or mix well with a fork if you like it a little chunkier.
-
Optional but key for crispiness: Sprinkle a pinch of shredded cheese directly onto the hot waffle iron before pouring in the batter.
-
Pour in enough batter to just cover the waffle iron — don’t overfill!
-
Sprinkle a little more cheese right on top of the batter for a golden, crispy finish.
-
Cook 3–5 minutes until deeply golden and crispy. (You’ll smell when they’re ready.)
-
Remove carefully and let cool slightly for max crunch.
-
Serve hot, slathered with butter. Add sugar-free syrup or melted bacon fat if you’re feeling wild.
🧀 Ratio Rule (for easy scaling):
Use ¼ cup shredded cheese per egg — adjust up or down based on how many you want.
🔥 Pro Tips:
-
Mix in crumbled bacon or cooked sausage for an extra meaty version.
-
For sweet-style carnivore chaffles, add a drop of vanilla extract and a pinch of cinnamon if you allow spices.
-
Make a chaffle sandwich with fried eggs, steak, or burger patties in the middle. No bun needed.
