Main Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic seasoning
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 slices of American cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Prepare Chaffle Batter: In a medium bowl, beat the egg and mix in the garlic seasoning. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and stir until well combined to form your chaffle batter.
- Heat the Skillet: Place a skillet over medium heat and melt the tablespoon of butter until it coats the pan evenly.
- Cook the First Cheese Layer: Lay the two slices of American cheese in the skillet and cook them for about 1 to 2 minutes until they start melting and slightly crisp on the edges.
- Add Chaffle Batter: Pour the prepared chaffle batter evenly over the melted American cheese slices in the skillet, spreading gently to cover the cheese base.
- Grill the Chaffle: Cook the mixture on medium-low heat for about 3 to 4 minutes until the edges are golden and the cheese is melted and set.
- Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the chaffle using a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until both sides are crisp and golden brown.
- Serve Warm: Remove the grilled cheese chaffle from the skillet and serve immediately while hot and melty.
Notes
- Ensure the skillet is hot enough before adding butter to prevent sticking.
- Use medium-low heat to avoid burning the cheese before the chaffle cooks through.
- You can customize your chaffle by adding herbs or spices to the batter.
- Serve with a low-carb dipping sauce or fresh vegetables for a complete meal.
