Keto Herbed Focaccia Bread

8 ratings

We love our Keto Herbed Focaccia, made using a fathead-style dough. Shredded mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, and coconut flour are melted together to form a dough. The dough is spread onto a baking sheet into a rectangle shape and then baked until nicely golden and puffy. While the dough is still hot, the top is dimpled quickly, and then it is drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled with Italian seasoning. The result is delicious and is super easy to make!

Do I have to use shredded mozzarella cheese?

We like shredded mozzarella cheese because it is the mildest and the lightest in color. However, we have successfully made doughs like this using shredded Chihuahua cheese, which has a more robust cheesy flavor and is delicious too.

What can I substitute for the coconut flour?

If you want to use almond flour, you can substitute the coconut flour for 3 tbsp almond flour instead.

Does this bread store well?

While you can reheat leftovers of this bread, this bread is best eaten the same day when it is hot and fresh.

To make the ultimate pairing, serve this with other Keto Italian recipes like our Paleo Air Fryer Italian Chicken Artichoke Salad ! Feel free to remove the chicken breast in this salad to make it Vegan.

    Yum. I used almond flour and a whole egg as mentioned below. I will definitely make it again

      Super delicious! I used almond flour and a whole egg based on the reviews. Cooked it 5 minutes longer and it turned out fantastic. It’s not quite bread, like breadsticks, but it’s yummy and cures the craving. Perfect for dipping in marinara.

        This was a very easy recipe ☺️ I substituted the coconut flour with Almond flour and I broiled it for about 2 minutes. PERFECT 🤩 I will definitely be making this again! FYI: spray the pan before you lay the “dough”

          Made this tonight. It looked exactly like the picture. Tasted pretty good too. I used two pieces as a hot dog bun. Will make it again!

            Tried this out today but varied it a little and it worked very well. 220g mozeralla, 80g cream cheese. 40g almond flour (I think 30g should suffice), 2 eggs whole (not just the whites). I'd also recommend adding salt into the mix, possibly paprika too, and you don't need to add the oil or spices on top

              Is that right - substitute 4 teaspoons coconut flour with 4 tablespoons? almond flour? Should it be teaspoons? Can't wait to try

                Yes, the recipe is correct as written. Coconut flour absorbs much more moisture than almond flour, so it is used in smaller amounts. A little goes a long way.

              I would use almond flour and 1 whole egg. Just think it cooks better that way and the texture is better.

                Fixed the bread for supper. It turned out good. It does have a different texture. Would be good dipped in pizza sauce. I will be making it again.

                  It cooked well. But I’m not fond of the texture….the middle of it is very gooey.. and the outside doesn’t really get firm or crunchy. I even tried cooking it longer than the recipe said to.
