Description
Keto Churro Chaffles are a quick, low-carb twist on churros, made with almond flour, mozzarella, and cinnamon, then coated in buttery sweetener for a crunchy, cinnamon-sugar finish without the carbs.
Ingredients
1 large egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup grated mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons almond flour
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons granulated sweetener
¼ teaspoon baking powder
For coating:
1 tablespoon melted butter
1–2 tablespoons granulated sweetener
Instructions
- Whisk egg and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until frothy.
- Add mozzarella, almond flour, cinnamon, sweetener, and baking powder. Stir until smooth and combined.
- Preheat mini waffle maker and lightly grease plates.
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the waffle plates, spreading to edges.
- Close lid and cook for 2–3 minutes, until golden brown and crisp around edges.
- Transfer chaffles to a wire rack to cool for a few minutes for maximum crunch.
- Brush both sides with melted butter, then roll in sweetener (and extra cinnamon, if desired).
Notes
Use monk fruit or erythritol for a keto-friendly sweetener option.
Add extra cinnamon to coating for a stronger spice note.
Works in a regular waffle iron; increase cooking time slightly if needed.
Cool before coating to preserve crispness.
Store in the fridge up to 3 days; reheat in toaster or oven to restore crunch.
