We have a delightful Keto Chaffle Churro recipe that’s perfect for anyone who loves churros. These sweet chaffles deliver that crunchy, cinnamon-sugar crust with a tender interior — a great low-carb treat.
The secret to great churro-style chaffles is the simple dough and the sweetener used for the coating. For this version we used a brown-style erythritol blend to mimic the caramel notes of brown sugar combined with cinnamon, but you can choose other keto-friendly sweeteners to suit your taste.
Keto Sweetener Options for Churros:
Swerve Brown Sweetener
Monkfruit Golden
Sukrin Gold Brown Sugar
All of these work well and will give slightly different flavor profiles — choose the one you prefer.
I used a small mini waffle iron to make these chaffles. A compact mini waffle maker works perfectly and produces the cute, round chaffles ideal for slicing and coating in cinnamon sugar.
Keto Chaffle Churro Recipe Ingredients

Below is a short video that demonstrates the method for making these Keto Chaffle Churros.
Keto Chaffle Churro Recipe Instructions
- Preheat the mini waffle iron.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg with a fork until combined.
- Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese until evenly mixed.
- Place half of the mixture into the mini waffle maker and cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes.
- While the chaffle is cooking, combine the brown sweetener and cinnamon in a separate shallow bowl.
- When the chaffle is done, slice it while still hot and toss the pieces in the cinnamon-sweetener mixture so they absorb the coating best when warm.
- Serve warm and enjoy.
