Ingredients
Chaffle Batter
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup shredded cheese
- 1 tbsp scallions, finely chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
For Cooking
- Oil or non-stick spray (for greasing waffle iron)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Waffle Iron: Grease the waffle iron lightly with oil or non-stick spray and preheat it for about 2 minutes to ensure it’s hot and ready for cooking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the egg, shredded cheese, finely chopped scallions, and salt and pepper until fully combined.
- Cook First Chaffle: Pour half of the mixture onto the preheated waffle iron, close the lid and cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until the egg is fully cooked and the chaffle is crisp.
- Cook Second Chaffle: Repeat the same process for the remaining mixture to make the second chaffle.
- Cool to Firm Up: Once cooked, transfer the chaffles to a wire rack and allow them to cool slightly. This resting period helps them become crispier and firmer, perfect for slicing or topping.
Notes
- These chaffles can be customized by adding different herbs, spices, or cheese types to suit your taste.
- They work great as a bread alternative for sandwiches or as a snack on their own.
- Use a non-stick waffle iron or grease well to prevent sticking.
- Ensure the waffle iron is sufficiently hot before pouring the batter for best texture.
- Leftover chaffles can be refrigerated and reheated in a toaster or air fryer for crispiness.
