Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup shredded cheese
- 1 tbsp scallions, finely chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Oil or non-stick spray, for greasing
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle iron: Grease your waffle iron with oil or non-stick spray and preheat it for about 2 minutes until hot and ready to cook.
- Mix the batter: In a bowl, whisk together the egg, shredded cheese, finely chopped scallions, and season with salt and pepper. Make sure the mixture is well combined for even cooking and flavor.
- Cook the chaffles: Pour half of the mixture onto the heated waffle iron. Close the lid and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the egg is fully cooked and the chaffle is crisp on the outside.
- Repeat cooking: Carefully remove the cooked chaffle and place it on a wire rack. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make a second chaffle.
- Cool and serve: Allow the chaffles to cool slightly on a wire rack so they can firm up and become crispier before serving. Enjoy them warm as a bread substitute, snack, or breakfast treat!
Notes
- Use full-fat cheese for the best melt and crispiness.
- Try different cheeses like mozzarella, cheddar, or parmesan for variety.
- Add spices such as garlic powder or paprika for extra flavor.
- These chaffles are great for sandwiches or as a base for toppings like avocado or eggs.
- Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in a toaster or oven for crispiness.
