This cheesy keto garlic flatbread is golden on the edges, soft in the middle, and packed with melty cheese and real garlic. It’s a quick, low-carb, gluten-free side that satisfies bread cravings and is perfect for dinner, parties, or as a pizza base.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (225g)
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened (56g)
  • 3/4 cup super fine almond flour (90g)
  • 1 tsp baking powder (5g)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2–3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt (3g)
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning or dried oregano (2g, optional)
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted (28g)
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (15g, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, until fully melted and stretchy (about 1-2 minutes total). Alternatively, melt over low heat on the stovetop, stirring constantly.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, salt, and Italian seasoning or dried oregano.
  4. Add the egg and minced garlic to the dry mixture. Stir until just combined.
  5. Add the melted cheese mixture to the bowl with the almond flour and egg. Mix with a spatula until a soft dough forms. If too hard to mix, microwave for another 10 seconds to soften.
  6. Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. With damp hands, press or pat the dough into a round or oval about 1/2 inch thick.
  7. Brush melted butter over the top, then sprinkle with grated Parmesan and extra Italian seasoning if desired.
  8. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center feels set.
  9. Let the flatbread cool for 3-5 minutes before slicing. Use a pizza cutter for wedges.

Notes

For best results, use low-moisture mozzarella and real minced garlic. Wet your hands to shape the sticky dough easily. Don’t overbake—the flatbread continues to cook as it cools. For a crispier top, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
