Instructions:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the cheeses are melted and well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, chopped cilantro (if using), and a pinch of salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the melted cheese mixture and stir until it starts coming together.
- Beat the egg and add it to the dough mixture. Mix well until you have a uniform dough. If the dough becomes too sticky to handle, you can lightly grease your hands with oil or butter.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape them into balls.
- Place a ball of dough between two sheets of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to flatten it into a round naan shape, about 1/4 inch thick. You can also shape it by hand if desired.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or ghee to the skillet.
- Carefully transfer the flattened dough onto the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until it’s golden brown and cooked through. You can cover the skillet with a lid to help the cheese melt and the bread cook evenly.
- Repeat the process for the remaining balls of dough.
- Once cooked, remove the Keto Cheese Naan Bread from the skillet and place it on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess grease.
- Serve the Cheese Naan Bread warm, either on its own or as a side with your favorite keto-friendly Indian dishes.
This Keto Cheese Naan Bread is a great way to enjoy the flavors of traditional naan while sticking to a low-carb or keto diet. It’s cheesy, flavorful, and perfect for pairing with curries, stews, or as a snack.
