Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Keto
Serves: 12 breadsticks
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the breadsticks from sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of almond flour, 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix these dry ingredients together until they are well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/4 cup of melted butter until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Pour the egg and butter mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add 1/2 teaspoon of Italian seasoning to the mixture. Stir everything together until a dough forms. The dough should be moist but not sticky. If it's too dry, you can add a little more melted butter or a splash of water.
- Once the dough is ready, use your hands to shape it into 12 equal-sized breadsticks. You can roll them out on a clean surface or simply shape them directly on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Place the shaped breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow for even cooking.
- Optional: Brush the tops of the breadsticks with a little extra melted butter and sprinkle some additional Italian seasoning or Parmesan cheese for added flavor.
- Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Once baked, remove the breadsticks from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Serve warm, and enjoy your delicious low carb keto breadsticks!
Tips
- Measure Accurately: Precision is key when working with almond flour. Make sure to measure it correctly to achieve the best texture for your breadsticks.
- Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to customize the seasoning! Add herbs like oregano or basil for a different twist, or sprinkle some red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
- Don’t Skip the Parchment Paper: Lining your baking sheet with parchment paper is crucial. It prevents sticking and ensures that your breadsticks come out perfectly shaped.
- Check for Doneness: Ovens can vary, so keep an eye on your breadsticks as they bake. They should be golden brown and firm to the touch when ready.
- Serve Warm: These breadsticks are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven. Serve them warm with marinara sauce or garlic butter for an irresistible treat.
- Store Leftovers Properly: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat them in the oven for a few minutes to restore their crispiness.
