You will need this Mini Waffle Bowl maker for this recipe. Once you start using it you will quickly become addicted to this clever little gadget!
Are Breakfast Chaffle Bowls good for keto meal prep?
Yes, this is PERFECT for keto meal prep! You can make the chaffle bowls up to 4 days ahead of time and store them in the fridge, then you can simply toast or air fry them to crisp them up when you’re ready. The scrambled eggs can be made 3-4 days ahead of time and stored in the fridge as well. Go ahead and shred your cheese, cut your ham, and you’ve got breakfast waiting in the fridge anytime.
I don’t recommend assembling the bowls until you’re ready to eat. You could store all of the filling together in an airtight container and the bowl in a ziplock bag, then just reheat and assemble!
Tips for the BEST Breakfast Chaffle Bowl:
- When making your chaffle bowl, do not overfill the maker. Two tablespoons is all it takes, and overfilling will cause a pretty big mess.
- Customize your fillings for your own preferences! Switch out the ham for bacon or chicken if you’d like. Use pepper jack cheese and add hot sauce if you like it spicy!
- Reheat chaffles in the air fryer or toaster oven to crisp them up. You can also zap them in the microwave, but they get a bit soggy.
- Try different cheeses both in the chaffle bowl and as a filling! Cheddar, gouda, mozzarella… There are so many different options you can try!
