chaffles blt
A super delicious alternative to bread. Keto is my way of eating and when wanting a sandwich, this is what I turn to. Use your imagination and even make a healthy dessert with them or just an ordinary waffle. So much healthier than bread. Enjoy!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
Stop the press. If you are following a Keto lifestyle, you'll be in heaven with this chaffle recipe. Buying a mini waffle maker is well worth it for this recipe. But, they can be made in a traditional waffle maker too (you'll have to double the recipe). The chaffle puffs up in the cooking process. It's soft but stable enough to hold like sandwich bread. We followed Cassie's directions and made a delicious Keto-friendly BLT. But, you can really get creative with different types of cheese and seasonings. The possibilities are endless!
Ingredients
- 1 jumbo egg
- 1 tablespoon almond flour or can leave out, I like it as it makes the chaffles more substantial
- 1 pinch salt
- 1/2 cup cheddar, shredded, or favorite cheese. Don’t use already shredded cheese as there is added potato starch to keep from sticking together. Shred fresh, it’s best!
- Other seasonings, if wish
- Fixings for BLT - cooked bacon, lettuce, tomato
