Servings: 1 servings
Ingredients
- 1 egg large or extra-large
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite melting variety
- seasoning to taste salt, pepper, garlic powder, or Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle maker: Set your mini waffle maker to medium-high heat and allow it to heat for about 2-3 minutes until fully preheated and a light indicator shows it's ready.
- Prepare the egg mixture: Crack the egg into a small bowl, add the shredded cheese and your desired seasonings, then whisk together until well combined and the cheese is evenly distributed throughout the egg.
- Grease the waffle maker: Lightly brush or spray both sides of the waffle maker with cooking spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking and ensure maximum crispiness.
- Pour and cook: Pour the egg mixture into the preheated waffle maker, close gently, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the edges are golden brown and crispy and no liquid egg remains visible at the seams.
- Remove and serve: Carefully open the waffle maker and use a fork or small spatula to gently remove the crispy waffle egg onto a plate, being careful as it will be hot.
