Christmas time is meant for indulgences. If you love the smooth, creaminess of egg nog, you will love this eggnog chaffle with creme anglaise on top. Enjoy it on Christmas morning or as a dessert this holiday season.
Eggnog is one of my favorite holiday drinks. Until there is one commercially available, you have to make your own if you want that creamy, smooth beverage over the Christmas season. Good news: it is pretty easy to make and any leftovers work perfectly in an eggnog chaffle.
Waffles are a breakfast favorite. It’s easy to make them low-carb with chaffle waffles. Chaffles are made primarily from egg and cheese and they’re surprisingly filling.
This eggnog chaffle makes a great breakfast on Christmas morning, especially topped with the crème anglaise sauce. Since it’s easy to make, you can spend more time with your family and less time in the kitchen.

Can I use regular eggnog instead of keto eggnog for this recipe?
Regular eggnog has a lot more sugar, so it'll bump up the carbs significantly. If you're not strict about carbs, you can use it, but the macros will be totally different.
What can I substitute for coconut flour in the chaffle?
Almond flour works as a swap, but you'll need a bit more of it since it doesn't absorb as much liquid as coconut flour. Start with about double the amount and adjust from there.
How should I store leftover chaffles and creme anglaise?
Keep leftover chaffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The creme anglaise lasts about a week refrigerated. Reheat the chaffles in a toaster or oven so they crisp back up.
Can I make this chaffle ahead of time?
Yes! I make these ahead all the time. Store them in the fridge and just pop them in the toaster before serving.
Is there a way to make this recipe dairy-free?
You can swap the cream cheese for a dairy-free alternative and use a non-dairy eggnog. I haven't tested it myself, but it should work with the right substitutes.
