Keto Cream Cheese and Aged Cheddar Bread Rolls
When you have a few carbs to spare and still need to add some fat to your Keto meal, a classic bread roll makes a good side dish! Using a Fathead Dough recipe, these bread rolls perfectly round out Keto recipes. Cream cheese mixed right into the dough adds a slightly creamy flavor and gives the rolls some of their pillowy texture. Freshly shredded aged cheddar is the star of the show, mixed throughout the rolls. A little extra cheese on top adds a crispy top texture too. Choose a favorite aged cheddar cheese from your grocery store – the flavor will really stand out! If you don’t want to use cheddar cheese, any mild, white cheese makes a great substitute.
How to Make It
Step 1
Make the dough for the rolls at least 30 minutes before you want to bake. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and aged cheddar. Whisk together an egg in a separate bowl and pour HALF the egg into the flour. Set the remaining egg aside in your refrigerator for later. Meanwhile, in a small pot on the stove, melt the cream cheese and mozzarella together.
Step 2
Use a spatula to fold the melted cheese into the flour mixture. Fold over a knead in the bowl until you have a streak-free dough. Wrap and refrigerate the dough for just 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll into balls on the tray.
Step 3
Use the remaining whisked egg from earlier as an egg wash. Gently brush it over the top of the bread rolls and arrange ½ teaspoon of shredded cheese on top of each one. Bake the rolls for 25 minutes and enjoy hot.
