Whether you serve it as a side with soup or salad, or slice it into sticks for dipping, this keto flatbread will become a weekly staple. It’s perfect for garlic bread cravings — minus the carbs!
Ingredients (Makes 6 slices)
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 oz cream cheese
- ¾ cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (or 1 teaspoon dried)
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (optional topping)
Instructions
1. Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Make the Dough
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for 45 seconds, stir, then microwave an additional 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
3. Mix Ingredients
Add almond flour, egg, garlic powder, baking powder, salt, and minced garlic to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until a dough forms (it will be sticky — that’s okay!).
4. Shape the Flatbread
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Transfer the rolled dough (with bottom parchment) to the baking sheet.
5. Bake
Bake for 10–12 minutes until the edges are golden.
6. Add Garlic Butter
Remove from oven and brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with parsley and grated Parmesan if desired.
7. Finish & Serve
Return to the oven for 2–3 more minutes. Slice and serve warm.

Tips & Tricks
- Too sticky to handle? Chill the dough for 10 minutes before rolling.
- You can swap almond flour for coconut flour, but use only ⅓ cup as it’s more absorbent.
- Try mixing in shredded cheddar or Italian blend cheese for a flavor twist.
- Serve with low-carb marinara, keto ranch, or garlic aioli for dipping.
Something Special From Me 🧄🧀✨
Cheesy keto garlic flatbread is one of those recipes that feels like a cheat meal — but isn’t. It’s amazing how close it comes to real bread in texture, and the flavor is everything you love about garlic knots or cheesy breadsticks. I love making a double batch and freezing extras — they reheat beautifully in the oven or air fryer.
This flatbread is also a fantastic base for mini keto pizzas. Just top with sauce and cheese, bake for a few more minutes, and enjoy a personal pie!
