Keto “bread”

I don’t follow KETO specifically but I try to substitute proteins for carbs whenever I can. My body seems to function better that way. And I stay fuller longer. I found this recipe a couple months back and saved it to my “healthy recipes to try” Pinterest board.

I have found many pins using this same recipe so I have no way to credit the original recipe creator but I will leave the original pin as I found it for proper credit to that pinner.

Here is the original PIN I found next to my finished product:

My Attempt

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
• 1 egg
• Garlic salt sprinkled on top before baking

I used the convection setting on my oven which puts it at 375°.

They only needed 15 minutes to cook. Any longer might have made them too crispy.

PROS:

• Easy to make
• Easy to double or triple recipe to make more
• Very fast prep time
• I could successfully pretend this was bread
• Very versatile

CONS:

• Could be bland without some spice for flavoring which is why I sprinkled garlic salt on it.
• Needs to be eaten soon after it’s made. Doesn’t age well.

In the future, I plan to use this recipe to make:

• Bagels
• Breakfast sandwiches
• Mini pizzas
• Cheese sticks
