I'm excited to share with you my latest creation - this Bacon & Avocado Chaffle Sandwich! Just like this Ham & Cheese Chaffle Sandwich it's a great meal prep and lunchbox option for busy days.
I've been experimenting with chaffles for quite some time, and I've come up with a unique method for making them super fluffy without any cheese bits or eggy taste! It's the very same method I came up with when working on my Keto Chaffles book!
My secret? I blend the batter until it's smooth and creamy, which creates the perfect texture for a chaffle sandwich. And what's even better is that this sandwich is loaded with crispy bacon and creamy avocado, making it a satisfying and delicious high-protein meal any time of day.
So, let's get started on this recipe and whip up a batch of chaffles that are sure to impress!
What Do I Need to Make Chaffles?
A 4-inch Dash Mini Waffle Iron is the perfect tool to make chaffles but you can use a regular waffle maker which will produce bigger waffles. You can always spread the batter thin to get 2 waffles.

Ingredients (makes 1 sandwich)
Chaffles:
Filling:
- 4 thin-cut or 2 regular slices crisped up bacon (32 g/ 1.1 oz)
- 3 tbsp full-fat cream cheese (45 g/ 1.6 oz)
- 1/4 medium avocado, sliced (50 g/ 1.8 oz)
Instructions
- Make the chaffles according to the instructions here to make two waffles (nut-free options included). You can either use a mini waffle or panini maker.
- Let the chaffles cool down completely. They will be soft when they are warm but will crisp up as they cool down.
- Meanwhile, cook the bacon on a pan or in the oven until crispy.
- Spread cream cheese on top of each waffle. Top with avocado and crispy bacon. Top with the other waffle.
- Enjoy immediately or store the chaffles, without any topping, in a sealed container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the fridge for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze for up to 3 months. The container will keep them soft but you can leave them uncovered if you prefer them crispy.
