Description

These Keto Cream Puff Chaffles are an easy-to-make and low-carb treat to enjoy for breakfast or dessert. With minimal grams of net carbs per serving, this cream-filled waffle is a delicious and fun dish that can made in just 25 minutes.


Ingredients

Batter:

Filling:


Instructions

  1. Chaffles: Turn waffle iron on to preheat.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, mix together chaffle ingredients. Divide chaffle mixture into 6 equal-portions.
  3. Generously coat preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon individual portions of the mix into greased waffle iron. Before closing waffle iron lid to cook, allow mixture to sit for about 30 seconds to melt and spread to edges, using a spatula to spread mixture, if necessary. Cook individual waffles for about 1 minute with the lid down (depending on your waffle iron.) Note that the chaffles will be thinner than traditional waffles.
  4. After cooking, remove individual chaffle by teasing edges out with a fork. Transfer cooked chaffle to wire rack to cool.
  5. Filling: In a separate large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, mix together all filling ingredients until smooth and thick enough to pipe, being careful to not over mix (if you do, it will yield a butter-like consistency).
  6. Final Steps: Once chaffles have fully cooled, spoon filling into a piping bag and pipe filling atop 3 chaffles. Place remaining 3 chaffles atop filling-covered chaffles to form a sandwich. Serve “as is” or, using a sharp knife, slice chaffles in half.

Recipe Notes:

Fresh Mozzarella Cheese Cannot Be Used In Place Of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese: You need to use shredded mozzarella cheese, which is typically sold in a bag at the grocery store. Fresh mozzarella, which usually comes in a ball, has too much moisture and will not work here.

Classic Monk Fruit Sweetener: This sweetener can be substituted at a 1:1 ratio with golden monk fruit sweetener. You can also use erythritol or Swerve.

Where Monk Fruit Sweetener Can Be Purchased: Monk fruit sweetener is becoming widely available for sale at most grocery stores, especially specialty food stores and Costco. I personally purchase mine online from Lakanto and have it directly shipped to me. If you want to order your monk fruit sweetener online, you can use discount code REALBALANCED for 20% OFF your order!

SunButter Substitution: If you do not have a nut allergy or intolerance, you can substitute in unsweetened peanut butter or unsweetened almond butter for SunButter at a 1:1 ratio.

Net Carbs: One chaffle sandwich (2 chaffles plus cream filling) contains 4.9 grams of net carbs.

Refrigerator Storage: Store these keto chaffles in the refrigerator in an airtight container or freezer bag and eat within 3 days.

Freezer Storage: Store these chaffles in a freezer bag or airtight container and use parchment paper to separate each waffle to avoid them sticking together. Store in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Reheating Refrigerated or Frozen Chaffles: To reheat refrigerated chaffles, place in a toaster (only use a toaster if you have not pre-made a chaffle sandwich with the cream filling in the middle), a preheated toaster oven, or a preheated oven and heat until warmed throughout. I would not suggest reheating in the microwave as they will become very, very chewy. If frozen, unthaw chaffles in the refrigerator before reheating.
