Make these easy, low-carb garlic breadsticks using fathead dough for a satisfying keto appetizer or side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, cubed
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 60 to 90 seconds until the cheese is fully melted and soft.
  3. Stir the melted cheese mixture until smooth. Add the egg, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder. Mix until a dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough briefly on a lightly floured surface (use almond flour) until uniform.
  5. Roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into 10 to 12 breadstick shapes.
  6. Transfer the breadsticks to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
  7. While the breadsticks bake, prepare the topping: Melt the butter in a small bowl. Stir in the minced garlic and chopped parsley.
  8. Remove the breadsticks from the oven. Brush the melted garlic butter mixture evenly over the hot breadsticks.
  9. Return the breadsticks to the oven for 2 to 3 more minutes to toast the garlic slightly.
  10. Cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Serve these breadsticks immediately with a side of warm, low-sugar marinara sauce or keto ranch dressing for dipping.
  • For a crispier exterior, you can bake the sticks directly on a pizza stone instead of parchment paper after the initial bake.
  • If the dough is too sticky to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before rolling.
