Instructions
Prepare the Chaffle Batter
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, eggs, almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Cook the Chaffles
Preheat your chaffle maker or waffle iron to 200°C. Grease the plates lightly with cooking spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking. Pour half of the batter onto the preheated plates, spreading it evenly. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the chaffles are golden brown and crispy.
Prepare the Fillings
While the chaffles are cooking, prepare your sandwich fillings. Cook the bacon until crispy and set aside. In a separate pan, scramble the eggs to your desired doneness. Slice the avocado and wash the spinach leaves. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard to create a creamy spread.
Assemble the Sandwiches
Once the first chaffle is cooked, remove it from the maker and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top while it's still warm to allow it to melt slightly. Add a layer of scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, sliced avocado, and fresh spinach leaves. Spread the creamy mayo-Dijon mixture on the second chaffle and place it on top to complete the sandwich.
Serve and Enjoy
Serve your Keto Chaffle Sandwiches immediately while warm and crispy. Pair them with a side of fresh fruit or a simple green salad for a complete meal. Enjoy the rich, savory flavors and the satisfying crunch of the chaffles!
