There are keto snacks you tolerate, and then there are keto snacks you genuinely look forward to. Rip Van Wafels Mini Stroopwafels fall very firmly into the second category. These little bite-sized pieces of heaven have become a non-negotiable part of my morning routine — and once I tell you my favorite way to enjoy them, I have a feeling they’re about to become part of yours too.
What Is a Stroopwafel?
If you’ve never heard of a stroopwafel before, let me introduce you to one of the best things the Netherlands has ever given the world. A Rip Van Wafel is a healthier take on the traditional Dutch stroopwafel — a low sugar sandwich cookie that rivals the original in taste but contains significantly more fiber and far less sugar.
The traditional version is made by sandwiching a layer of caramel syrup between two thin, crispy waffle-style wafers. Rip Van took that beloved concept and reimagined it for the health-conscious snacker — keeping all the indulgence and ditching everything you don’t need.
The Macros: Surprisingly Keto Friendly
For such a delicious, dessert-inspired snack, the numbers are really impressive:
- Calories: 34 per mini wafel
- Net Carbs: 3g per mini wafel
- Sugar: 1g per mini wafel
- Total Carbs: 5g per mini wafel
- Fiber: 2g per mini wafel
These keto-friendly mini wafels are bite-sized, caramel-filled, with only 3g net carbs, 1g sugar, plus prebiotic fiber. At just 34 calories and 3g net carbs per wafel, you can enjoy one — or two! — without derailing your daily macros. The prebiotic fiber from chicory root is an added bonus for gut health too. 🙌
The Ingredients: Clean and Recognizable
Rip Van Wafels are made with chicory root fiber, wheat flour, sustainably sourced palm fruit oil, butter, cane sugar, chickpea flour, vegetable glycerin, eggs, sea salt, vanilla extract, sunflower lecithin, oat fiber, baking soda, and monkfruit extract.
Every ingredient is something you can actually pronounce — and more importantly, Rip Van uses only ingredients derived from real food, avoiding artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, sugar alcohols, artificial colors, and high fructose corn syrup. All products are certified by the Non-GMO Project as being 100% free of genetically modified ingredients.
Worth noting: these wafels do contain wheat, eggs, and dairy — so they’re not suitable for those with gluten or dairy sensitivities.
The Taste & Texture: Okay, Let’s Talk About the Coffee Trick
Here’s where things get really fun — and where I’m about to change your entire morning routine.
The flavor on its own is wonderful — a warm, lightly sweet caramel and vanilla combination with a satisfying crunch. But here’s my absolute favorite way to enjoy them: place a mini wafel directly on top of your hot morning coffee and let it sit for about 60 seconds.
What happens next is pure magic. Placing them on top of a cup of steaming coffee gives an extra melty, chewy bite as the steam gently softens the caramel center and warms the wafer layers from the outside in. The result is a soft, gooey, warm little bite of heaven that pairs perfectly with your morning cup. ☕
And here’s the best part — this is actually the TRADITIONAL Dutch way to enjoy a stroopwafel! So not only are you eating a delicious keto-friendly snack, you’re doing it exactly the way it was meant to be eaten. How’s that for fancy? 😄
