What is a Chaffle?

While the term chaffle may be new to some, most of you probably know it as a “cheese waffle.” The term chaffle came to be because this is a waffle that is made from a cheese base. Most chaffle recipes contain some variety of egg, cheese and a low carb flour, such as coconut or almond flour. 

The mixture may sound off, but I can assure you, they make perfectly crisp waffles on the outside and delightfully fluffy waffles on the inside! For more chaffle ideas and recipes, check out this post – Everything You Should Know about Chaffles!

How do you make a Ham and Cheese Chaffle?

These low carb waffles could not be easier. Simply beat the eggs well, then fold in the almond flour, baking powder, cheese and ham. Add the batter to the waffle maker, be careful not to overfill, and cook 2-3 minutes until you no longer see any steam coming from the machine.

What waffle maker should I use?

You can make a chaffle with any waffle maker you have. However, I do love this handy little Ms. Dash waffle maker, they are the perfect size. This is the machine I used for this recipe and it makes 5 perfect waffles. 

This size is also great as a bread substitute, you can layer your favorite sandwich fillings in between two chaffles and enjoy a quick and easy low carb sandwich!
