If you are new to the Keto Chaffle craze, here is everything you need to know about them!
Why is it called a chaffle?
It’s called a chaffle because cheese + waffles = Chaffles! It’s just a clever name that someone in the keto community invented. Pretty cute, huh?!!
What kitchen gadget do you use to make chaffles?
I love my little Mini Waffle Maker and I use it all the time. You can use a full-size waffle maker, just be sure you double the recipe in most cases.
Can you freeze chaffles?
Yes, they freeze well! Just be sure to wrap them tightly in an airtight container to keep them fresh longer. You can freeze them for up to a month. I haven’t tested any longer than that.
Can you make chaffles for a whole week at one time?
You can also prep ahead of time and make fresh chaffles for the week. They will stay fresh as long as you keep them refrigerated. To reheat them, simply pop them in the microwave or air fryer to heat them up. The air fryer tends to get them nice and crispy if that’s what you are going for!
Here are a few photos we took while making this amazing recipe.
