how to make Irresistibly Easy Keto Garlic Flatbread

Ingredients :

  • 2 cups shredded low moisture mozzarella (the secret to a stretchy, delightful dough)
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese (adds creaminess and binds the ingredients together)
  • 2 large eggs (provide structure and moisture for the flatbread)
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (keeps it keto-friendly while providing a tender texture)
  • 1 tsp baking powder (helps the flatbread rise and become fluffy)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced, infuses the flatbread with a rich, aromatic flavor)
  • 2 tbsp butter (for brushing on the flatbread, adding richness)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (enhances flavor and helps achieve a golden color)
  • 2 tbsp parsley (chopped, adds freshness and a pop of color)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated, a final touch for a deliciously cheesy topping)

Directions :

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, gently melt 2 cups of shredded low moisture mozzarella and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Stir well to combine.
  2. Add 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup of almond flour, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder to the melted cheese. Stir until a sticky dough forms and all ingredients are nicely blended.
  3. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, allowing it to firm up for easier handling and better texture.
  4. Once chilled, divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each into a ball and flatten between two sheets of parchment paper until about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  6. Place the flattened dough onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-17 minutes, until golden brown and slightly crisp on the edges.
  7. While the flatbreads are baking, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  8. Remove flatbreads from the oven and immediately brush them with the garlic butter mixture. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan and a dash of fresh parsley.
  9. Return the flatbreads to the oven for an additional minute for the cheese to melt and become bubbly.
