Ingredients

  • Medlee Garlic Parm Seasoned Butter
  • 2 cups Mozzarella shredded
  • 1/2 cup Mozzarella shredded; set aside for topping
  • 2 tbsp Cream Cheese
  • 3/4 cup Almond Flour
  • 1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Head of Garlic
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • Olive Oil
  • Dipping Sauce of Your Choice I love a low-carb marinara

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Roast the garlic! Slice of the top 1/3rd of the garlic and discard. Place on aluminum foil. Drizzle olive oil on top and sprinkle salt. Close the tin foil up and place in oven to roast for 30 minutes (or until fork tender). If you haven’t done this before, you’re in for a treat! Roasting the garlic takes out the intensity and makes it sweeter.
  • Make the dough! In a medium sized mixing bowl, add shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for 30 seconds and mix a bit with a spoon. Then, put back in the microwave for 30 more seconds until it’s all melted. You may have to mix a bit again until fully combined.
  • Slowly add the almond flour into the melted cheese mixture (it won’t mix entirely right away, so don’t worry!)
  • Once you have the almond flour combined as much as you can, add the egg and apple cider vinegar. Mix to form a dough. Sprinkle in your rosemary, garlic powder, and salt. Combine one final time.
  • Shape the dough into a ball. Place on a sheet of parchment paper. It’s ok if it’s a little bit sticky!
  • Add another sheet on top and get to rolling! I like to roll mine to about 1/2 an inch thick.
  • If presentation matters to you (and you want perfect looking breadsticks), use a paring knife and trim the dough into a square!
  • Carefully, peel the top layer of parchment paper off, remove excess dough (if necessary), and transfer to a wire rack. Be sure to remove the extra parchment paper from the edges. Leaving too much extra paper can cause a fire!
  • Bake in the oven for 8 minutes or until it starts to turn golden brown. Remove from oven and spread the roasted garlic over the top.
  • Place four pads of Medlee garlic parm seasoned butter onto the bread and cover it with cheese.
  • Place back in the oven for 10 minutes or until cheese and butter melt. If butter pools, gently smooth it with a knife.
  • For even more buttery goodness and a pop of flavor, before serving, melt the remaining pads of butter and brush onto bread if you desire!
  • Cut, dip and enjoy!
