🥖 Keto Cheesy Focaccia

The ultimate low-carb bread: soft, golden, and ready in 30 minutes.

  • Prep time: 10 minutes

  • Cook time: 20 minutes

  • Total time: 30 minutes

  • Servings: 8 slices

  • Net Carbs: 3g per slice

🛒 Ingredients

The Dough Base:

  • 2 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)

  • 2 oz Cream cheese

  • 1 ½ cups Almond flour (fine-ground)

  • 2 large Eggs

  • 1 tsp Baking powder

The Seasoning & Topping:

  • 2 tbsp Olive oil

  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese (grated)

  • 1 tsp Garlic powder

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • ½ tsp Salt

🥣 Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

  2. Melt the Cheeses: In a microwave-safe vessel, combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.

  3. Mix the Dough: Add the almond flour, eggs, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder to the melted cheese mixture. Use a spatula to mix thoroughly until a sticky dough forms.

  4. Shape the Bread: Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Using slightly oiled hands or a spatula, pat the dough into a rectangle or oval shape (about ½ to ¾ inch thick).

  5. Add Toppings: Drizzle the olive oil over the top. Use your fingertips to press small “dimples” into the surface. Sprinkle with the Italian seasoning and the Parmesan cheese.

  6. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the top is a beautiful golden brown and the edges are slightly crisp.

  7. Serve: Allow the focaccia to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps the interior set for that perfect soft texture.

💡 Pro-Tips for the Best Focaccia

  • The “Fathead” Method: If the dough gets too cold and stiff while mixing, pop it back in the microwave for 15 seconds to soften the cheese again.

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or air fryer to bring back the “crunch” on the top!

  • Variety: Try adding a few sliced olives or a sprig of fresh rosemary on top before baking for an extra gourmet touch.
