Keto Garlic Bread Recipe – How to make the best easy low carb homemade garlic cheese bread with 0.6g net carbs – with almond flour and mozzarella – without yeast or cream cheese.
Keto Garlic Bread Recipe
This Keto Garlic Bread Recipe is quick and simple to prepare, low in net carbs (at just 0.6g per slice) but tastes WAY better than any carb full garlic bread out there.
I’ve been making the keto cheese bread recipe weekly lately whenever I roast a chicken to enjoy as a cheesy side that perfectly complements and completes the main dish.
If you’re new to keto, then this recipe will be an absolute life saver for you – helping you enjoy all the flavors of garlic bread or a garlic pizza in a low carb friendly approved way that tastes just like the real thing. (Or maybe even better!)
Low Carb Garlic Bread Ingredients
Here are the main ingredients that you’ll need to make these cheesy garlic bread.
As you’ll see in the recipe card down below, they are all simple ingredients that you’re likely to already have in your kitchen, so can conveniently create a batch of this delicious keto garlic bread to enjoy as the perfect side dish with any meal.
Grated Cheese – you can go for mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese or really any gooey cheese that you’d like. You can use already grated cheese or grate the cheese yourself to make the keto dough.
Just be sure to check when buying ready grated cheese that there are no hidden carbs which are often added to prevent the grated cheese from sticking together in the package.
Garlic – you can use fresh garlic cloves or garlic powder, depending on your personal preference and the garlic flavor you’re after.
I’ve suggested 2 to 4 garlic cloves in the recipe, you could always use more or can swap to a half to a teaspoon of powder instead.
Oregano – a generous pinch of ground oregano is the perfect herb addition in this recipe.
Almond Flour – I’ve used almond flour to bind the easy keto garlic bread together.
If you’d like to use coconut flour instead, use 1 to 2 tablespoons, until you reach the perfect bread batter consistency.
1 Egg – I’ve used a large egg in this recipe, if your egg is smaller, you may need to add a second to help bind the ingredients together, or you could add a few tablespoons of melted butter if the batter is too dry.
Optional Extra Ingredients
Here are some ideas for more ingredients that you can include in your keto bread recipe that are all low in grams of net carbs:
Marinara Sauce – you can spread a tablespoon or so of marinara sauce over the top of the bread and then sprinkle over a little more grated cheese.
Another option is to pour a little marinara sauce into a bowl and enjoy it as a keto diet friendly dipping sauce for the garlic bread.
Italian Seasoning, Chives or Parsley – you can swap the oregano for Italian Seasoning, Chives, Fresh Parsley or your herb of choice for a mixed herb healthy garlic bread recipe.
Salt & Pepper – I find that the strong flavors of cheese, garlic and oregano don’t need the addition of salt and pepper, but you can feel free to add a pinch or two of either if you want.
Cream Cheese – add in 1-2 tablespoons of cream cheese for a creamier bread that’s more like fathead dough, that’s also low in g net carbs.
This low carb garlic bread recipe can also be used as a pizza crust and topped with your keto friendly toppings of choice such as cooked mushrooms, perpperoni, salami, tomato, goats cheese or even leftover roast chicken or meat.
