Reddit mentions of Dash mini Waffle maker Winter Sky

There are a LOT of recipes and suggestions online. The trick for me was to play with them and kind of take and leave the suggestions for my own personal preference. I’ve only been making chaffles for a month-ish now, but here are my suggestions:

1.) there are a TON of recipes online, both here on reddit and with a basic Google search. I personally found the simplest to start with and then adjusted to my preferences. Don’t get overwhelmed, but really consider trying one - and don’t give up if they don’t meet the hype the first time you try them!! They didn’t for me, but since I’ve started playing with different additions I have found these to be an amazing sub for breads and buns.

2.) consider getting the Dash mini waffle maker - (http://Dash mini Waffle maker Winter Sky https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z8T3NKK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_l4kUDb2TFXWVA) (sorry about formatting, not able to fix it on mobile for some reason). It really made a difference in my chaffle shape, and I find one of these is great for using as half of a sandwich bun - we’ve used two for burgers, and they work really nicely as a bun substitute. I have a regular size waffle maker, and the chaffles don’t fit together as nicely unless you keep them in one half of the pan, and even then you’re probably using more batter than you actually need with a half-moon shape that isn’t as good for sandwich type chaffles as with the mini maker. If you can’t find the mini one on Amazon (they seem to be in short supply), I saw some at my local Kohl’s for ~$10. It’s a steal and I have used it far more than the regular sized. If I had to guess I’d say it’s about 3-4” diameter, and it is really perfect.

3.) as above, I have adjusted my recipe to my tastes. I don’t like my chaffles to have an egg-y flavor - I’ve figured this out by using EggBeaters instead, and adding some almond flour and flaxseed. It doesn’t take much to make what I feel is a dramatic difference in taste, and the net carbs in my personal recipe, which I’ve tweaked for taste over time, is less than 2g carbs per chaffle.

Chaffles are a staple in our keto house - they’re perfect and worth the effort of trying. You can do a ton - sweet, savory, endless possibilities.

Good luck!!
