Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • Large egg (1)
  • Almond flour (2 tablespoons)
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder (1 tablespoon)
  • Granulated zero-calorie sweetener (2–3 teaspoons, to taste; erythritol, allulose, or monk fruit blend)
  • Baking powder (1/4 teaspoon)
  • Vanilla extract (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Mozzarella cheese, finely shredded (1/4 cup; optional for classic chaffle texture)
  • Plain Greek yogurt or softened cream cheese (2 tablespoons, for the filling)
  • Powdered zero-calorie sweetener (1–2 teaspoons, for the filling)
  • Vanilla extract (a few drops, for the filling)
  • Unsweetened almond milk (1–2 teaspoons, optional to thin the filling)
  • Cooking spray or a little butter/oil for the waffle maker

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the waffle maker. A mini waffle maker works best for chaffles, but a regular one is fine. Lightly grease the plates.
  • Make the batter. In a small bowl, whisk the egg. Add almond flour, cocoa, granulated sweetener, baking powder, vanilla, and salt. Stir until mostly smooth. If using, fold in shredded mozzarella for extra structure.
  • Check thickness. The batter should be pourable but not runny. If it’s too thick, add 1–2 teaspoons of water or almond milk. If too thin, sprinkle in a bit more almond flour.
  • Cook the first chaffle. Pour about half the batter onto the hot waffle iron. Close and cook for 3–4 minutes, or until set, crisp at the edges, and lifts easily.
  • Repeat. Cook the remaining batter. Place cooked chaffles on a wire rack for 2 minutes to keep them crisp.
  • Make the filling. Stir Greek yogurt or softened cream cheese with powdered sweetener and a few drops of vanilla. Thin with a splash of almond milk if needed. Taste and adjust sweetness.
  • Assemble. Spread the filling over one chaffle and top with the second to create a sandwich. For a lighter option, add filling only to half and enjoy open-faced.
  • Finish and serve. Dust with a pinch of cocoa or powdered sweetener, or drizzle with a little melted dark chocolate if you like.
