Cheesy Waffle Snacks

yield: 1 SERVINGS

prep time: 1 MINUTES

cook time: 3 MINUTES

total time: 4 MINUTES

Fried Pickles:

  • 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 3 slices no sugar added dill pickles (I used hamburger-style chips)

Jalapeño Popper:

  • 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon jalapeño, diced

Cheddar Bacon:

  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup crumbled bacon

1

Fried Pickle

  1. Lay the pickles on a paper towel and pat dry. I prefer cutting the pickles into smaller slices so each bite has a piece of pickle, but you can leave them whole though if you like.
  2. Add half of the shredded cheese to your Dash mini waffle maker (no need to spray beforehand). Top with pickles then remaining cheese. Shut the top of the waffle maker and let it cook for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Remove cheesy waffle and let it cool on a paper towel or cutting board. Once cooled to the touch, fold in half like a taco, and let cool further to crisp up even more.
  4. Dip into your favorite keto ranch or eat plain.

I spotted this video from Good Eats With Rose on Tik Tok, and she cleverly combined two simple ingredients together to create the ultimate keto fried pickle cheese waffle recipe. I ran to my fridge and grabbed some pickles and shredded cheese to try out this recipe ASAP!

I couldn't help myself and took it a step further by making a few variations of these keto cheese waffles: the original pickles & cheese, Monterey Jack & jalapeño cheddar, and cheddar bacon. Variety is the spice of life so why not! 😋

Tips for making 2-ingredient crunchy cheese waffles in the Dash Mini Waffle Maker:

  • The Dash Mini Waffle Maker is one of the most in-demand small kitchen appliances right now and sells out quite often. Grab one online from Target or Amazon.
  • Many of the videos I've seen show someone spraying the waffle maker with cooking spray, but I've found that I end up with a crispier texture by skipping this step. The cheese produces enough fat that it will not stick to the waffle maker.
  • Be patient! This is a quick process, but to get that deliciously crunchy texture, you'll need to leave it in longer than a normal waffle. I suggest leaving it in for at least 3 minutes, then check to see if it is done to your liking.
  • Grab some keto ranch or low carb marinara sauce to dip your snacks in!

This simple cheese waffle recipe is almost TOO good!

The only negative thing I could think of about this simple keto recipe is the fact that it is so dang good that I couldn't just eat one. I ended up making six of the crunchy cheese waffles and ate them all. Oops!

I made a batch for my boys to enjoy when they got home from school, too. I loved being able to serve them a delicious snack that wasn't packed with a bunch of sugar!
