- Herbs and spices of your choice (I like the garlic and onion flavored croutons)
- Optional ingredients include a little bit of almond flour, baking powder and those cool bread flavor drops you can buy!
- If you are already making chaffles then you probably already have the awesome mini waffle maker! I buckled and got myself the full size Dash to save time. I have to say I do love it!
