Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp almond flour
  • 2 jalapeno peppers
  • 0.5 tsp baking powder
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.125 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Plug in a mini waffle maker to preheat and lightly grease it if it isn't nonstick.
  2. Halve the jalapeños, remove the seeds and ribs if you want less heat, and mince them very finely.
  3. In a bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Stir in 1.5 cups of the cheddar, the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and jalapeño.
  4. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of the remaining cheddar onto the hot waffle iron, spoon in about 3 tablespoons of batter, and top with a little more cheese.
  5. Close the lid and cook 3 to 4 minutes, until the steam slows and the chaffle is deep golden. Lift it out with a fork and set it on a wire rack.
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 8 chaffles. Serve warm.
