Gingerbread Chaffles Recipe (2024)

FAQs

Are chaffles good the next day? ›

To store: Chaffles can be stored in the refrigerator, covered. They will keep well for up to 5 days. To freeze: Place leftover chaffles in a ziplock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 6 months. Reheating: Simply pop them in a toaster oven or toaster until crispy.

They reheat beautifully, straight from frozen. Reheat: You can reheat these in the toaster, toaster oven, skillet, or conventional oven at 350 degrees F. I prefer the toaster, which is the fastest and easiest, and gets them crispy.

Serve chaffles hot or cold, but I personally prefer them hot. The recipe yields approximately 2 cheese waffles, it depends on your waffle iron size. If you are making these chaffles for more than one person, double or triple the ingredients.

Chaffles Nutrition And Carb Count

But in general, assuming you use real, whole milk cheese like cheddar or mozzarella (as opposed to cream cheese or American cheese), chaffles are entirely carb-free. A typical serving size of two chaffles contains roughly: 300 calories.

Are Chaffles Healthy? Chaffles may be low in carbohydrates, but they are not low in calories, sodium, cholesterol, fat or saturated fat.

Chaffles are meant to be on the smaller size so a small waffle iron, like the Dash mini waffle maker, works best, but you can also use a regular waffle maker or Belgian waffle iron, too.

Chaffles can be made up ahead of time, wrapped up tightly and stored in the refrigerator until use. Most especially like to do this if they are using these waffles as bread for sandwiches or burgers. To reheat the chaffle, put it in the toaster oven, oven or toaster and reheat to crisp up.

Properly stored, chaffles will last 4-5 days in the refrigerator. To freeze, place cooled chaffles in a freezer bag or airtight container with parchment paper between each one. Frozen chaffles will keep for 3-4 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating in a toaster oven or air fryer.

Waffles are easy – same ingredients as pancakes, just different ratios so they're crispy outside, soft and fluffy inside. You can make this waffle recipe right now, though if you make the batter the night before they're even better!

Yes, it is quite easy to make waffles that are perfect for eating on another day. By purposefully undercooking them a bit, you can then allow them to cool before wrapping them in pairs with plastic wrap and then placing them in an airtight plastic bag. (Cook them until they are still pale in color, but cooked through).

Can you use waffle batter the next day? ›

You can cook the waffles at this point, or refrigerate the batter overnight to cook waffles the next day. Preheat your waffle iron. Spray with non-stick vegetable oil spray, and pour 2/3 to 3/4 cup batter (or the amount recommended by the manufacturer) onto the center of the iron.
