Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup (38 g / 1.34 oz) shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup (38 g / 1.34 oz) shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon (3 g / 0.11 oz) ground flaxseed
  • ¼ teaspoon (1 g / 0.04 oz) baking powder
  • For the crispiest results, let the chaffle cool on a wire rack for a minute or two after cooking.
  • Feel free to customize! Add a pinch of garlic powder, onion powder, or your favorite dried herbs to the batter for extra flavor.
  • Use freshly shredded cheese if possible. Pre-shredded bags contain anti-caking agents that can affect the final texture.

Method
 

  1. Preparation Method1.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, shredded cheddar cheese, ground flaxseed, and baking powder until well combined. 2.
  3. Preheat your waffle iron.
  4. Once hot, sprinkle half of the shredded Parmesan cheese directly onto the bottom plate. This creates a crispy, non-stick cheese crust. 3.
  5. Pour the egg and cheese mixture evenly over the Parmesan on the waffle iron.
  6. Top the batter with the remaining shredded Parmesan cheese. 4. Close the waffle iron and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the chaffle is golden brown, crispy, and steam is no longer coming from the iron. 5. Carefully remove the chaffle with a fork or spatula and let it cool for a minute to firm up before serving.
  7. Enjoy immediately!
  8. Don't overfill your waffle iron! A little batter goes a long way, and it will expand as it cooks.
