8. Step 8: Serve the garlic keto flatbreads warm, garnished with parsley if desired.

Tips & Variations

• For extra flavor, add a pinch of dried oregano or chili flakes into the dough.
• Use fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme instead of parsley for a different twist.
• If the dough feels too sticky to handle, chill it longer or lightly oil your hands while shaping.
• Try using grated cheddar or a mix of cheeses for a sharper taste.

Storage

Store leftover flatbreads in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm them in a toaster oven or skillet until crisp. Avoid microwaving to maintain their texture.

FAQs

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Yes, refrigerating the dough for at least 4 hours helps it firm up and makes it easier to handle. You can also prepare it the day before and store it covered in the fridge.

Is almond flour necessary for this recipe?

Almond flour adds structure and keeps the flatbread low-carb. You can’t substitute with regular flour if you want to keep it keto-friendly, but coconut flour can be experimented with in small amounts.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

For the Flatbread:

• 2 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese
• 2 eggs
• ½ cup almond flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon grated parmesan
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon parsley
• 1 tablespoon parmesan for topping

Instructions

1. Prepare the Dough: Melt the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese together in the microwave until fully melted and combined. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, then add almond flour, baking powder, grated parmesan, and a pinch of salt if desired. Pour in the melted cheese mixture and gently fold everything together until a dough forms. Wrap or cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to firm up, making it easier to handle and shape.
2. Shape the Flatbreads: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide it into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Using parchment paper on both sides to prevent sticking, flatten each ball into a disc about ¼ inch thick.
3. Bake: Place the flattened dough discs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the flatbreads develop a golden brown color and firm crust.
4. Make Garlic Butter: While the flatbreads are baking, heat olive oil and butter together in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook gently until the garlic turns golden brown and fragrant, being careful not to burn it. Remove from heat and stir in the parsley.
5. Finish and Serve: Once the flatbreads come out of the oven, brush them generously with the prepared garlic butter. Sprinkle extra parmesan cheese on top for added flavor. Return the flatbreads to the oven for an additional 1 minute to melt the parmesan and set the topping. Serve the garlic keto flatbreads warm for best taste and texture.

Notes

• Refrigerating the dough is essential to firm it up and make shaping easier.
• Use parchment paper when rolling out the dough to prevent sticking.
• Adjust the garlic amount to your taste for milder or stronger garlic flavor.
• These flatbreads can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
• Optional: sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the finished flatbreads for added color and freshness.
