MAPLE CREAM CHEESE TOPPING:

INGREDIENT NOTES:
EGGS:
- The egg gives them structure and moisture, so the chaffles stay fluffy and tightly bound. It also aids in the batter’s even cooking.
MOZZARELLA CHEESE:
- The chaffles get crisp edges from the smooth melting of the shredded mozzarella. The cinnamon isn’t overpowered by its subtle flavor. It functions as a binder without introducing carbohydrates.
ALMOND FLOUR:
- The chaffles gain bulk and a bread-like texture from the almond flour. It maintains their internal softness and balances the cheese.
BAKING POWDER:
- Baking powder keeps the chaffles from becoming very dense and helps them rise a little. It makes the batter lighter.
CINNAMON:
- The batter gains a toasty, sweet flavor from the cinnamon. It adds a dessert-like feel without using any added sugar. An essential for the flavor of cinnamon rolls.
KETO SWEETENER:
- The chaffles taste sweet but remain low in carbohydrates thanks to a keto-friendly sweetener. Allulose, monk fruit, or Erythritol all function well. Pick your favorite.
CREAM CHEESE:
- Cream cheese makes the topping base and is rich, creamy, and slightly sour. It counteracts the syrup’s sweetness.
BUTTER:
- The addition of butter provides the smoothness and richness in the maple cream cheese topping. It makes the spread drizzling smooth and effortless. It is better to use unsalted butter.
KETO MAPLE SYRUP:
- Keto maple syrup offers real maple flavor without adding sugar. It melds flawlessly with cream cheese for sweetness.
VANILLA ESSENCE:
- Vanilla essence will enhance the flavor of the topping and chaffles. It enhances cinnamon with a delightful scent.
