Every once in awhile I get a craving for these savory waffles. Recently I got the idea to make a chicken cordon bleu type of waffle that essentially has chicken, ham and swiss inside. I’ve already made a handful of savory waffles and thought this would be a good addition.

So I used some rotisserie chicken I had, along with the a few other ingredients and created these chicken ham & swiss keto waffles. Oh am I glad I did. They were awesome!

Savory keto waffles

These are not the kind of waffles you would load with syrup and eat for breakfast. Though you could eat them for breakfast. I make them because they are low carb and just darn tasty.

However, I need to find a way to make a big batch of these because I think they would also be great for a party. But for now I can only manage 4 at a time. I do freeze them and reheat them and they taste great, but not quite as good as the ones fresh off the waffle iron.

Chicken Ham & Swiss keto Waffles Recipe

To make this recipe, you mix a beaten egg, cooked chicken, ham, swiss and mozzarella to make your “batter”. You take about 1/4 of the batter and put it in the center of the iron and press down. You should get 4 small waffles from this recipe.

I find that if you keep them small and in the center, they won’t stick to your waffle iron. Well at least they don’t stick to mine. And while you only get 4 small waffles, that is plenty for one person because they are filling. I think it’s because you are essentially eating fried cheese with chicken and ham thrown in. Doesn’t that sound good. 😉

By the way, I have a nonstick waffle iron that I bought from Target that is just wonderful. It was less than $20 I believe and it works great because you don’t have to grease it and nothing sticks to it.

If you like these kind of waffles I would definitely recommend it. It’s an Oster Waffle Iron and you can also get it on Amazon too.

So if you are a fan of the savory low carb waffles, this is another one for you. Only 5 ingredients, to make 4 waffles in 10 minutes that are 1g net carbs each. How’s that for some numbers! I hope you enjoy these delicious chicken ham & swiss waffles. 

1 waffle = 97 cals / 5.3g fat / 1g carbs / 10.5g protein = 1g net carbs

And if you really like that chicken, ham and swiss combination, try my friend Taryn’s low carb chicken cordon bleu casserole. It looks fantastic!

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup chicken, cooked and cut into small pieces
  • 1 egg
  • 1 oz ham, cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup Swiss cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Get your waffle iron ready according to manufacturer's instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, beat your egg and then add the other ingredients.
  3. Mix well.
  4. Add 1/4 of the batter to the center of the heated waffle iron and close.
  5. Continue with the rest of the batter. This should make 4 small waffles.
  6. Note: My waffle make does not require me to grease it beforehand. I find that if I make the waffles small and in the center, they will not stick. They should come out nice and chewy but crunchy on the outside.

    I love turning anything we can into a waffle! We recently put raw babka dough on a waffle iron and it was spectacular, although definitely not low carb friendly. This looks like a much healthier option to try out this weekend. 😉

    What a wonderful idea for savoury waffles! I do enjoy savoury breakfast more than sweet ones, so definitely putting this on my list to try! And it looks like one of these dishes that will not leave me feeling heavy, as it’s a low carb!

    These keto waffles look delicious! I like the idea of having a great breakfast that isn’t going to weigh me down with lots of carbs too.

      They are addictive Michelle! I make these for my husband all the time. The nice thing is that you can really put anything you want in them for a savory snack.

    Boy, this really sounds like a fantastic breakfast! But I have to admit the chicken cordon bleu waffles sound fantastic too. Just thinking of the crunchy waffles around the meat and cheese is making me super hungry. I don’t like sandwiches with soggy bread. Can’t wait to try this.

    Drooling, like seriously! I made a mixture that was suppose to turn into an egg frittata for Bible study today, but never baked it because ended up at dr with daughter who has pnuemonia 🙁 So I am totally pouring the batter into my waffle maker!
