It literally only takes 2 minutes to cook a Chaffle in the Mini Waffle Maker...so quick and easy!
Are you Carb Conscious?
This recipe uses Almond Flour in place of regular flour. Almond Flour is a great alternative to traditional wheat flour. It’s low in carbs, packed with nutrients and has a slightly sweeter taste. Almond Flour may also provide more health benefits than traditional wheat flour, such as reducing “bad” LDL cholesterol and insulin resistance.
