Description

Imagine biting into a warm, comforting grilled cheese sandwich, but with a delightful twist. This recipe transforms simple ingredients into a satisfying meal that fits seamlessly into a focused dietary approach. The "bread" of this sandwich is crafted from savory chaffles – crisp, golden rounds made from a blend of egg and cheese, offering a unique textural experience that is both familiar and exciting.

The chaffles can be prepared to your preference, either using a waffle maker for a perfectly patterned finish or cooked on a stovetop like a traditional pancake for a rustic touch. Once the chaffles are ready, the magic truly begins. Nestled between these cheesy rounds is a generous layer of melted cheese, offering a gooey, decadent contrast to the crispness of the chaffles.

While cheddar is a classic choice, feel free to explore a variety of full-fat cheeses to find your perfect combination. Mild mozzarella, creamy provolone, or even the nutty notes of gouda would all make fantastic additions, creating a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate. Whether enjoyed fresh off the griddle, with the cheese still molten and stretchy, or prepared ahead of time for a convenient meal, this grilled cheese variation is a versatile and delicious option.

The warmth of the sandwich, coupled with the rich, savory flavor, makes it a truly satisfying experience. For those adhering to a specific dietary plan, this recipe focuses on a limited selection of ingredients – primarily eggs, fats, and cheeses – ensuring a streamlined approach. A touch of your favorite condiment or a few shreds of lettuce can add a welcome burst of flavor and texture without compromising the overall nutritional focus.

Each serving provides a balanced combination of protein and fats, making it a substantial and fulfilling meal option. Feel free to customize the portion size to suit your individual needs and preferences, whether that means enjoying a single grilled cheese or indulging in a double serving to satisfy your cravings. You can also have one grilled cheese with an extra chaffle.

Embrace the simplicity and deliciousness of this recipe, and discover a new way to enjoy the timeless comfort of a grilled cheese sandwich.

Cream cheese

2 oz

Instructions

Make the chaffle batter by cracking the eggs into a food processor or powerful blender. Add the cream cheese cut into 1-ounce pieces along with a pinch of salt. Use the pulse button to carefully blend the ingredients until the eggs and cream cheese are broken up. Then, you can turn your appliance on to blend the chaffle batter into a lump-free, frothy liquid. You may need to scrape the batter down with a spatula and blend more than once to complete the batter.

Choose a cast-iron or non-stick skillet to heat on your stove to medium-low heat. Melt ½ teaspoon coconut oil per chaffle you’re cooking in the skillet. Once the oil is heated, pour ¼ cup of batter per chaffle into the skillet. Let the batter slowly spread into a circle. After the chaffle cooks a little, use a spatula to gently fix any thin or misshapen edges. Sprinkle ½ teaspoon shredded pepper jack cheese and a pinch of minced chives over the center of the batter.

Reduce the heat as necessary once you see how quickly your batter is cooking. You may need to use only a low heat setting if you’re cooking just one chaffle at a time. Once the chaffle has turned golden brown on one side and the batter has settled, flip the chaffle over to finish cooking on the other side. Transfer the finished chaffle to a plate to cool, and repeat the cooking steps to finish making all your chaffles. When you’re done, leave the chaffles aside to cool and return your skillet to your stovetop.

Wipe your skillet clean, if necessary, to remove any excess coconut oil. To make one grilled cheese, melt ¼ tablespoon of butter in the skillet over medium-low heat. Place one chaffle down flat in the butter, and sprinkle ½ ounce shredded cheddar over the top. Let the chaffle cook until it’s golden brown on one side, then use a spatula to fold the chaffle in half to create a folded grilled cheese sandwich. Flip the grilled cheese back and forth until it’s grilled on both sides and the cheese is melted. Repeat this step until all the grilled cheese sandwiches are made.
