🛒 Ingredients You’ll Need
For the Rolls (Fathead Dough Base):
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
For the Garlic Butter Topping:
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt to taste
👩🍳 How to Make Keto Garlic Rolls (Step-by-Step)
🔧 Step 1: Prep Your Workspace
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
🧀 Step 2: Make the Fathead Dough
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, until smooth (about 1-2 minutes total).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, salt, and minced garlic.
- Beat in the eggs until a soft dough begins to form.
- Add the melted cheese mixture into the almond flour mixture. Stir and knead with your hands or a silicone spatula until fully combined and dough-like.
🧆 Step 3: Shape the Rolls
- Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll into smooth balls.
- Place evenly spaced on your prepared baking sheet.
🔥 Step 4: Bake to Golden Perfection
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly browned and rolls are firm to the touch.
🧄 Step 5: Make the Garlic Butter Topping
- While baking, melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Stir in the remaining minced garlic, chopped parsley, and salt to taste.
✨ Step 6: Brush and Serve
- Remove rolls from oven and immediately brush generously with the garlic butter while warm.
- Serve fresh and enjoy that irresistible aroma!
