Ingredients
- 1 heaping tablespoon sugar-free peanut butter
- 1 extra large egg
- 2 teaspoons cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons monk fruit sweetener (optional, only if you enjoy sweet waffles)
- Pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar-free semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
- 1–2 teaspoons water as needed
Instructions
- Combine creamy peanut butter, egg, cocoa powder, a pinch of salt, monk fruit sweetener (optional), and 1 tablespoon of the chocolate chips in a mixing bowl.
- Stir until smooth; if batter is very thick, add 1-2 teaspoons of water gradually until easy to mix but not runny.
- Preheat the mini waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Lightly spray the heated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray if you’re worried about sticking.
- Spoon half the batter onto the waffle maker and sprinkle half of the remaining chocolate chips on top.
- Close the lid and cook 2-3 minutes, or until steam stops and the edges look set.
- Carefully remove the cooked waffle from the iron.
- Repeat spooning the remaining batter, sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips, and cook 2-3 minutes until done.
Notes
Toppings ideas include melted butter and sugar-free maple syrup, homemade whipped cream, cream cheese frosting, or keto-friendly ice cream with sugar-free caramel and chocolate ganache., Waffles store well in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months., Reheat waffles using oven, air fryer, toaster, or waffle maker to keep crispiness; avoid microwave to prevent sogginess., For dairy-free version, use dairy-free sugar-free chocolate chips., For nut-free version, use seed butter such as sunflower or pumpkin seed butter instead of peanut butter., You can swap monk fruit sweetener for regular sugar if not keto, but this increases carb count., Add flavor variations like vanilla extract, cinnamon, orange zest, chopped nuts, sugar-free caramel chips, or espresso powder.
