Ingredients
For the Dough
- 1 ½ cups pre-shredded mozzarella 175g
- 1 egg medium
- ¾ cup fine almond flour 80g, add 2 extra tablespoon if using ground almonds
- 2 tablespoon cream cheese
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
For the garlic butter
- 1 tablespoon butter melted
- 1 small clove garlic finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley finely chopped
- pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 180 Celsius/360 Fahrenheit.
- Melt the mozzarella and cream cheese in a non-stick pot over a low heat, stirring continuously. Alternatively, heat in a microwave (1 ½ minutes, stirring half way through). Take off the stove and/or make sure the cheese is melted, but not bubbling.
- Stir in the egg, almond flour and baking powder. Start to combine using a fork, then use your hands to knead into a ball of smooth dough. This can be easier if you lightly oil your hands first.
- Place onto a baking tray lined with baking paper and roll out into a flatbread shape. You can do this by either oiling a roller or by rolling the dough between two sheets of parchment paper.
- Bake 17 minutes or until lightly browned.
- In the meantime, chop garlic and parsley and melt butter. Mix and spread over the flatbread.
- Return to the oven for another 3-5 minutes. Cover with aluminium foil if the top gets too brown.
- Cut into slices and serve.

Lightly oil your hands when you handle the dough. It is less sticky that way.
If the cools too much, it can become stringy. In this case, simply re-heat it gently.
For a nut free bread, replace the almond flour with ¼ cup / 30g coconut flour.
