How to make garlic bread chaffles:
This post contains affiliate links.
A chaffle is just egg and cheese, but you can get so creative and add in all kinds of goodies!
Today, we’re giving it a garlic bread vibe, so whisk together your egg with a little coconut flour, baking powder, and garlic powder and then stir in some finely-shredded mozzarella.
The coconut flour and baking powder just help give this a more bread-like texture, but neither are mandatory. This recipe will work with just the egg, cheese, and spices if you don’t want to buy special ingredients.
Once everything is whisked together, you’ll pour half of the batter into your mini waffle maker and cook for about 3 minutes. You want to wait until your waffle maker stops steaming – that means your waffle will be nice and crisp on the outside!
Repeat with the rest of the batter and pop your chaffles on a baking sheet.
Whisk together some melted butter, parsley, and garlic salt to brush over the tops of the chaffles and then top them with some shredded Parmesan.
Pop these in a hot oven to melt the cheese and then dig in!
We like to cut into quarters and dip the chaffles in marinara. These would be divine dipped in keto Alfredo sauce too!
Our favorite marinara is this Rao’s brand…it has the BEST flavor of any jarred pasta sauce I’ve ever tried plus it’s sugar free.
What kind of waffle maker do you need?
You are going to want a mini waffle maker for this recipe.
I use the Dash Mini Waffle Maker.
Don’t worry – you can order from Amazon for around $10 and I almost guarantee you won’t regret the purchase!
It heats quickly, cooks quickly, takes up barely any space, and it comes in a variety of cute colors. I have the aqua.
If you want to make more than 1 mini waffle at a time, check out this one:

Cheesy garlic bread made in minutes thanks to your waffle maker! Plug in your mini waffle iron to preheat. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Add the egg, mozzarella, coconut flour, baking powder, and garlic powder to a mixing bowl and whisk well to combine. Pour half of the chaffle batter into the waffle iron and cook for 3 minutes or until the steam stops. Place the chaffle on a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chaffle batter. Stir together the butter and garlic salt and brush over the chaffles. Top the chaffles with the Parmesan. Place the pan in the oven for 5 minutes to melt the cheese. Sprinkle with parsley before serving. The garlic salt does make these a bit salty - feel free to swap in fresh minced garlic or garlic powder, if you're watching salt.

I’ve tried making chaffles but never got a good result, they never seem to crisp up like a waffle? What am I doing wrong? Today I did 1 egg mixture of cheddar and mozzarella cheese, a diced tomato and ham, similar to a pizza, but it ended up just a load of goo in the waffle iron?
Hi Becky! The best trick is to let the waffles cook until they stop steaming. They also tend to crisp up a bit as they set. That said, I don’t think they’ll get crispy with a tomato in there since that is something that’s going to release a bit of liquid. Instead, I’d add the cheese and egg and then, after the waffle is cooked, top with whatever and heat in the oven or toaster oven for a few minutes.
Do you have to use mozzarella cheese or can you use any finely grated cheese ? Do you spray the waffle maker with anything?
Hi Karen! You can use any finely grated cheese – mozzarella doesn’t make it taste cheesy but other cheeses will give the chaffle a flavor. The iron I use is very non-stick, so I spray it every few weeks or so, but not regularly. It’ll just depend on your waffle iron.
Looks delicious; however, I only have a regular 4-waffle maker: how can I make this?
You’ll just have to give it a try in your waffle maker and see how it goes. They’re all different sizes so it will cook fine, you just may need more or less of the mixture to fill your iron.
Do you think this would hold up well as a pizza crust? I’d like to top it with marinara and more mozzarella like a traditional pizza. Looks so yummy!
Yep! I think it would work great! 🙂
Can we make this like a pancake? I don’t have a waffle iron.
Yep, should work fine!
