This sweet, nutty chaffle is one of my favorite quick keto breakfasts. It works just as well as a low carb treat when a craving hits.

I make this chaffle all the time because it takes less than 5 minutes. The base is just egg and cheese cooked on a waffle iron, then you add peanut butter and a little sweetener to bring out that nutty, sweet flavor.

These are packed with protein and fat, so they’re a solid keto breakfast on their own. But if you want to dress them up, try topping with extra peanut butter, whipped cream, sugar free chocolate syrup, or crushed nuts.

What is a peanut butter chaffle?

It’s a low carb waffle made with peanut butter, egg and cheese. The name “chaffle” comes from combining cheese + waffle.

Keto Peanut Butter Chaffle

Frequently Asked Questions

Is peanut butter keto?

Peanut butter isn't the lowest carb nut butter out there, and some brands sneak in added sugar. But the two tablespoons in this recipe won't kick you out of ketosis if you're watching your total carb count for the day. If you want an even lower carb option, try pili nut butter or macadamia nut butter.

Can you freeze chaffles?

Yes, just cook, let cool and place in a freezer safe container. To reheat, use your toaster or a microwave.

Can I use almond butter?

Yes, almond butter is a great alternative to peanut butter.

What waffle maker do I need to make a chaffle?

You’ll need a waffle maker for this. I use the mini waffle iron by Dash because it’s the perfect size for a single chaffle.

A bigger waffle maker works too. Just pour the batter in the center and close it. It spreads on its own, so don’t worry about filling the whole surface.

Storing Chaffles

Store these in the fridge or freezer. They reheat great in a toaster or oven.

To freeze, let them cool completely, then flash freeze on a plate for 30 minutes. Transfer to a freezer safe bag once they’re solid.

To reheat, pop them in the toaster or oven until crisp.

    I am going into the kitchen to make these now. I am new to keto but am a peanut butter fanatic. Random and off-the-wall question: what is the name of the song you have playing with video link to this recipe? I cannot get my phone to identify it but love bluegrass music almost as much as peanut butter <3. If you don't know, thanks anyway for the recipe to try.
