KETO BREADSTICKS







KETO BREADSTICKS






Sweet and delicious keto breadsticks that are super easy to make! Ideal as an aperitif or accompaniment with low carbohydrate content.

INGREDIENTS
BREADSTICKS DOUGH
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 oz cream cheese
  • 3 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1 1/2 cups part skim low moisture shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup almond flour

TOPPINGS
  • 1 tsp finely chopped parsley
  • 1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup part skim low moisture shredded mozzarella cheese

INSTRUCTIONS

First, preheat the oven to 425 ° F.

Then, add the mozzarella and cream cheese to a large microwave-safe bowl. Melt in the microwave at full power in 30-second intervals. After every 30 seconds, stir the cheese until it is completely melted and uniform (see photo above). This should take approximately 1-1 1/2 minutes in total. Do not try to microwave full time at a time as some of the cheese will overcook. You can also melt the cheese on the stove in a double boiler.

Add a cheese ball in a food processor with a dough blade accessory. Add the almond flour, coconut flour and egg. Pulse at high speed until the dough is uniform. The dough will be quite sticky, which is normal.

Let the dough cool slightly, which will make it less sticky and easier to work with. Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper up to 1/4 inch thick. Peel off the top sheet of parchment paper from the dough. Place the dough (still on the lower parchment paper) on a baking sheet.

Spread 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving a 1/2 inch perimeter. Bake for about 5-6 minutes, or until the edges of the dough are golden and puffy.

Sprinkle the dough surface evenly with the rest of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, leaving a 1/2 inch perimeter. Bake 3 to 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Garnish with parsley before serving.

Happy Cooking Time.
