Here’s an easy and delicious Keto Cheese Bread recipe, perfect for low-carb and keto diets:
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (for topping)
- Fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Melt the Cheese:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the cheeses are fully melted and combined.
3. Mix the Dough:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt.
- Add the melted cheese mixture and egg to the dry ingredients. Mix everything until a dough forms. You may need to use your hands to knead the dough thoroughly.
4. Shape the Bread:
- On the prepared baking sheet, shape the dough into a rectangular or round loaf, about 1 inch thick.
5. Add Cheddar Topping:
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the bread.
6. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and firm to the touch.
7. Cool and Serve:
- Let the cheese bread cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
