Ingredients

Flatbread Base

  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella (low-moisture works best)
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese
  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • 1 egg
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Garlic Butter Topping

Method

1️⃣ Make the Dough

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C / 400°F.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella and cream cheese.
  3. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring each time, until fully melted and smooth.
  4. Add almond flour, egg, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Mix until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. (Hands work best.)

2️⃣ Shape the Flatbreads

  1. Place dough between two sheets of parchment paper.
  2. Roll or press into a rectangle or circles, about ¼ cm (⅛ inch) thick.
  3. Transfer to a baking tray (keep it on the parchment).

3️⃣ Bake

  1. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until lightly golden and set.
  2. Remove from oven.

4️⃣ Garlic + Cheese Magic

  1. Mix melted butter, garlic, and herbs.
  2. Brush generously over the flatbread.
  3. Sprinkle with extra cheese if using.
  4. Return to oven for 2–4 minutes, until bubbly and golden.

Serving Ideas

  • Slice into strips and dip in keto marinara
  • Serve alongside soups or salads
  • Use as a keto pizza base (add toppings, rebake)
  • Roll into wraps while warm

Pro Tips 🔥

  • For crispier edges, bake directly on the rack (parchment still on).
  • Want extra chew? Use part-skim mozzarella.
  • Dairy-free won’t work here — cheese is the backbone of the magic.
