Keto Italian Garlic Braids Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cover a baking sheet or cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt butter and combine topping ingredients and set aside.
- In a glass dish, blend baking powder, garlic, salt, seasonings, coconut flour, almond flour, flax seed and egg. Make sure there are no lumps.
- Use a microwave-safe dish to heat the cream cheese and mozzarella for 60 seconds, toss and heat again for 30 seconds.
- Blend the combined ingredients with cheese mixture in a food processor for about 3 minutes.
- Flatten dough into a rectangular shape about 1/2 inch thick. Slice into 8 equal sized strips, then divide each of those strips into 3 sections for braiding.
- Dampen hands or use olive oil on your fingers to arrange 3 strips side-by-side and press together at the top. Create a braid pattern moving the left and right strips over the middle.
- Press the bottom of the dough to complete the braid. Repeat for the rest of the bread strips.
- Apply coat of garlic butter and dust with salt and herbs.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
