Easy Flourless Keto Cheese Bread
A cheesy, golden, and completely flourless snack that satisfies savory cravings without the carbs. This bread uses a smart blend of cheeses to build a structure that mimics real wheat bread in just 25 minutes.
Ingredients
The Foundation
- 2 cups almond flour blanched and finely ground
- 1 tbsp baking powder fresh for better lift
- 3 cups mozzarella cheese low-moisture, shredded
- 2 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 2 units large eggs room temperature
The Topping
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese for the cheesy top layer
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese freshly grated
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour and baking powder. Set aside.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the 3 cups of shredded mozzarella and the cream cheese. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.
- Transfer the melted cheese mixture into a food processor. Add the eggs and the dry almond flour mixture. Pulse until a uniform ball of tacky dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto the prepared baking sheet. Pat it into a large rectangle or oval about half an inch thick.
- Pile on the remaining cup of mozzarella and the grated parmesan, spreading it right to the edges while leaving a thin border for the crust.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the topping is deep golden-brown and edges are set. Rest for two minutes, sprinkle with cilantro, and slice.
Notes
Use a food processor to prevent a rubbery texture and always grate your own parmesan to avoid anti-caking agents that cause graininess. If the dough is sticky, rub a drop of olive oil on your hands.
