Keto Everything Bagel Chaffle Stack (Salmon & Avocado)

About This Recipe

Craving an everything bagel without the carbs? This keto chaffle stack brings all the brunch vibes: crispy “bagel” chaffles layered with lemon-dill cream cheese, silky smoked salmon, and creamy avocado. It’s grain-free, satisfying, and ready in about 10 minutes.

Ingredients

For the chaffles

• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella (low-moisture, part-skim)
• 2 tbsp almond flour
• 1 tsp everything bagel seasoning, plus extra for topping
• Avocado oil spray or butter for the waffle maker

For the stack

• 2 tbsp cream cheese, softened
• 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
• Pinch of lemon zest
• 1 tsp chopped fresh dill (optional)
• 2 oz smoked salmon
• 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• Lemon wedge, for serving

Instructions

1. Preheat a mini waffle maker. In a bowl, whisk the eggs, mozzarella, almond flour, and everything bagel seasoning until smooth.
2. Lightly oil the waffle plates. Spoon in half the batter and cook 3–4 minutes until deeply golden and crisp. Repeat with remaining batter to make 2 chaffles.
3. In a small bowl, mix cream cheese with lemon juice, lemon zest, and dill.
4. Season the avocado slices with a pinch of salt and pepper.
5. Assemble: spread the lemon-dill cream cheese on both chaffles, layer with smoked salmon and avocado, and top with the second chaffle.
6. Finish with extra everything bagel seasoning and a squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately.
