Keto Christmas Tree Pull-Apart Garlic & Herbs Bread
How to Make It
Step 1
Add almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt to a bowl. Whisk until combined. Add the vinegar and whisk again.
Step 2
Crack the eggs into another bowl and whisk. Add it to the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Add the water and mix using a wooden spoon as needed. The dough should be firm yet slightly sticky.
Step 3
Wrap the dough in cling film and knead through the plastic for a couple of minutes. Transfer to the fridge and rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the garlic herb filling.
Step 4
Add the room-temperature butter to a bowl. Mince the garlic and finely chop the parsley. Add them to the bowl along with the dried oregano, dill, and parmesan cheese. Mix to combine, and set aside.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 350F/180C. Take the dough out of the fridge and divide it into two pieces. Roll each one between 2 pieces of parchment paper into a rough rectangle.
Step 6
Spread the garlic herb mixture onto one of the rolled-out dough sheets. Place the plain dough sheet on top. Trim the edges into a large triangle.
Step 7
Cut horizontal strips into the dough, keeping the center of the triangle intact. Twist gently, pinching the dough together to seal it closed. It should look like a Christmas tree at this point.
Step 8
Make a star and a tree base out of the trimmings and attach them. Brush with egg wash and bake for 18-20 minutes until the tree begins to brown. Don’t overbake it; it needs to stay soft and moist.
Step 9
Take it out of the oven and optionally garnish it with fresh herbs and crushed red pepper. Serve immediately!
