Ingredients:

  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, unsweetened
  • 1 tablespoon Swerve sweetener (or any other zero-calorie sweetener)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter, unsweetened
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Non-stick cooking spray

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Your Waffle Maker: Start by heating your mini waffle maker. If you don’t have a mini version, a regular one will work too; just keep in mind that the batter might spread more thinly.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, sweetener, and baking powder. These dry ingredients form the base of your chaffle, giving it a chocolatey flavor and light, fluffy texture.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients: Crack the egg into the dry ingredients, then add the peanut butter and vanilla extract. Mix everything well until you have a smooth batter. The peanut butter not only adds flavor but also contributes to the chaffle’s moist texture.
  4. Cook the Chaffle: Spray your preheated waffle maker with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the batter into the center of the waffle maker, close the lid, and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until the chaffle is set and slightly crispy on the outside.
  5. Serve: Carefully remove the chaffle from the waffle maker. Serve warm as is, or top with a dollop of zero-point whipped cream or a drizzle of sugar-free syrup for an extra treat.
