Keto Cheesy Bread

On more than one occasion where I’ve single-handedly polished off an entire serving of cheesy breadsticks AND still had room for my entrees, before I started a keto diet. I always have a second stomach for anything with cheese and and carbs these were no exception.

Analyze what this dish actually is, shaped into an oval, it’s essentially pizza dough and covered in melted cheese. I haven’t cut these foods out of my diet, since going keto. They’ve made more of a presence ,on the contrary. As someone who still enjoys on a regular basis cheese, bread, and pizza, recreating this was a no brainer.

What you’ll need to make this recipe

For the dough

• Mozzarella cheese– Low moisture mozzarella cheese
• Cream cheese– Full fat cream cheese (softened).
• Eggs-Room temperature eggs.
• Almond flour– Blanched almond flour.
• Baking powder– used as the leavening agent.

For the topping

• Mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese– gives the cheese bread the stretch we love
• Parsley– To serve.

How to make keto cheese bread?

• Start by preparing the dough. Combine the cream cheese and mozzarella cheese in a microwave-safe bowl and until both kinds of cheese are mostly melted, microwave in 20-second increments. Take the bowl out from the microwave and whisk together until it gets smooth.
• Next, add the baking powder, almond flour, and melted cheeses, along with the eggs into a food processor. Regularly scraping down the sides, pulse everything together, until a mostly uniform dough remains.
• Onto a kitchen surface, place a sheet of parchment paper. Onto the paper, transfer the dough and place the 2nd piece of parchment paper on top and out into a large, roll the dough, oval shape. Remove the top sheet of paper and onto a large baking dish, transfer and reserving half an inch around the sides, sprinkle the parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese on top.
• Until the edges are golden and the cheese has melted, bake the cheese bread for 10-12 minutes. Take it out from the oven and and to slice into pieces, use a pizza cutter. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.
  Serve immediately.
