Jalapeno and cheddar have been a favorite flavor combination of mine for a long time. These waffles definitely fall into that category and if you’re a fan of the flavors, too – this will be a perfect keto meal. The great thing about it all is, these will be ready in under 15 minutes, start to finish. Talk about simple!
Just a small tip that I’ve learned over the years of cooking keto waffles: the waffles are ready once the steam stops coming out of the waffle iron. Definitely one to keep in mind, because keto waffles usually take a bit longer to cook than regular waffles, so the “ready” light doesn’t always tell the truth.
These are perfect for breakfast (especially with the 10 Minute Country Gravy), but you can also have them for lunch or dinner. Slap some salsa, avocado, sour cream – even pulled pork on top. A savory meal awaits, and with these simple waffles, you’ll always have something only a few minutes away! Enjoy!
