Keto Italian Bread Pizza Chaffles

I gasped out loud when I first ate one of these. Way back in the day, my favourite café used to have a savoury hotcake dish on the menu that I adored, and these chaffles are so close to them that all of my fond memories were ignited.

To get the best chaffle texture, we're using our blending technique. And I'm telling you it's worth the extra step. Once you blend the batter, you will never go back to your old chaffle recipe. Blending creates a beautifully fluffy texture that is even with no cheesy chunks and no eggy taste.

Just like the original chaffle recipe, I used a 4-inch Dash Mini Waffle Iron. If you don't have one, feel free to use a regular waffle maker and double the batch to make about 3 regular-sized chaffles.

Pro tip: add a bit of pancetta for a delightful twist. Enjoy!

Step-by-step

1. Preheat the waffle maker. You can make these chaffles by blending or mixing the dough.

   

2. Start with the egg white, mozzarella and parmesan. Blend until smooth.

   

3. Add the dry ingredients and blend again. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

   

4. Cook in a preheated mini waffle maker for about 3 minutes or until crisped up. Open the waffle maker and let the chaffle rest to cool down slightly.

   

5. Use a spatula to remove and let cool down completely. Store at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze until required.
