Ingredients

  • 1 large egg

Notes

  • Mozzarella gives the crispiest results, but cheddar or a blend also works.
  • Let chaffles cool on a wire rack for extra crunch.
  • Use a mini waffle maker for the best thickness and texture.
  • Store extras in the fridge or freezer. Just reheat in the toaster or air fryer.

Storage & Reheating

  • Fridge: Up to 4 days in an airtight container.
  • Freezer: Freeze up to 2 months. Thaw in fridge overnight.
  • Reheat: Toast in air fryer or toaster for best texture.
