Eggs – 2 large eggs, which provide structure and protein.
Shredded Cheese – 1 cup of mozzarella or cheddar (or your preferred keto-friendly cheese). Mozzarella gives a neutral flavor, while cheddar adds a bit of sharpness.
Instructions
Preheat Your Waffle Maker: Start by preheating your waffle maker to medium heat. If your waffle maker requires oil, spray it lightly with cooking spray to avoid sticking.
Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until fully combined. Add the shredded cheese and mix until you get a cohesive mixture. The cheese should be evenly distributed.
Cook the Waffles: Scoop the mixture into the preheated waffle maker. Be careful not to overfill, as the cheese can spread when it melts. Close the lid and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
Serve and Enjoy: Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle maker and serve hot. You can top them with butter, sugar-free syrup, or even some avocado slices for a savory twist.
Notes
Don’t Skip the Preheat: Make sure your waffle maker is fully preheated before adding the batter. This ensures the waffles cook evenly and get crispy.
Grate Your Own Cheese: Pre-shredded cheese often contains anti-caking agents that can affect the texture of the waffles. For best results, shred your cheese fresh.
Customize the Crispiness: If you like your waffles extra crispy, leave them in the waffle maker for a little longer.
Serve Immediately: These waffles are best enjoyed fresh and hot. If they sit too long, they might lose their crisp texture.
