Ingredients
- Eggs – 2
- Mozzarella cheese – 1 cup
- Ground beef – 1 lb
- Salt & pepper – to taste
- Optional toppings
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth, then stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese and any optional seasonings you’re using, such as garlic powder or baking powder. Mix until everything is evenly combined and the batter looks thick and cheesy. Preheat your waffle maker, lightly grease it if needed, and spoon the batter in. Close the lid and cook until the chaffles are golden brown and crispy on the outside. Carefully remove them and set aside to cool slightly, which helps them firm up and hold their shape.
- Place the ground beef in a separate bowl and season it with salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Use your hands to gently mix the seasoning into the meat, being careful not to overwork it. Divide the mixture into portions and shape them into patties that are slightly wider than the chaffles, as they will shrink a bit during cooking.
- Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the burger patties and cook for about 3–4 minutes on the first side without moving them, allowing a nice crust to form. Flip and cook for another 3–4 minutes, or until the burgers reach your preferred level of doneness. If adding cheese, place it on top during the last minute of cooking so it melts nicely.
- To assemble the burgers, place one chaffle on a plate to serve as the bottom bun. Add lettuce, the cooked burger patty, and any toppings you like, such as tomato slices, pickles, or turkey or beef bacon. Drizzle with your favorite keto-friendly sauce, then place a second chaffle on top to finish the burger.
- Serve the chaffle burgers immediately while everything is hot and the chaffles are crisp. These are best enjoyed fresh, as the texture is at its peak right after assembling.
