Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 heaping tablespoon peanut butter (sugar free)
- 1 extra large egg
- 2 teaspoons cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons monkfruit sweetener (optional, only add if you enjoy sweet waffles)
- pinch salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar-free semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)
- 1-2 teaspoons water (as needed)
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, extra large egg, cocoa powder, pinch of salt, monkfruit sweetener if using, and 1 tablespoon of the sugar-free semi-sweet chocolate chips. Mix well to combine into a thick batter.
- Adjust consistency: Add 1-2 teaspoons of water as needed to thin the batter slightly so it spreads easily but stays thick enough for waffles.
- Preheat waffle maker: Preheat your mini waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure even cooking.
- Cook waffles: Place half of the batter into the waffle iron and sprinkle half of the remaining chocolate chips on top. Close the waffle maker and cook for 2-3 minutes until no steam is escaping, indicating the waffle is cooked through.
- Finish cooking: Carefully remove the waffle from the iron. Repeat the process with the remaining batter and chocolate chips to make the second waffle.
Notes
- This recipe makes 2 waffles when using a Dash mini waffle maker.
- When monkfruit sweetener is used, each waffle contains approximately 2.9 net carbs, making it suitable for low-carb diets.
- You can substitute peanut butter with any other creamy nut or seed butter if desired.
- Ensure the waffle maker is properly preheated for best texture and cooking results.
- The sugar-free chocolate chips add a touch of sweetness without adding sugar, but can be omitted if preferred.
