Easy Keto Naan Recipe
Description
The Easy Keto Naan Recipe relies on mozzarella cheese melted with sour cream to create a pliable dough base that replaces traditional wheat flour. Almond flour and gluten-free baking powder add structure and lift, while eggs bind the dough together. Kneading adjusts the texture to avoid stickiness, ensuring easy shaping into flatbreads rolled out on parchment-lined sheets.
Baking the flatbreads until lightly browned develops a slightly crispy crust while maintaining a soft, tender inside. The garlic butter topping, made with melted butter, garlic powder, and fresh parsley, enriches the naan with savory flavor and aromatic herbs. Baking briefly after brushing the topping adds a golden, flavorful finish.
This naan is well-suited for serving alongside curry dishes or as a low-carb alternative to traditional bread. The recipe yields six naan, making it practical for a small group or meal preparation.
Ingredients
For the Naan:
- 3 cups mozzarella cheese
- 2 tbsp sour cream
- 2 egg large
- 1 ½ cups almond flour blanched
- 1 tbsp baking powder gluten-free
For The Garlic Butter Topping:
- 2 tbsp butter
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp parsley chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, microwave mozzarella and sour cream, mixing every 30 seconds, until soft and shiny. (Mozzarella and sour cream can also be heated in a double boiler.)
- Add eggs, flour, and baking powder to melted cheese dough and mix well until combined.
- Knead until not sticky - add a little almond flour at a time if it is too sticky to knead.
- Split into 6 balls.
- Roll out balls into flatbread shape using a rolling pin.
- Lay rolled out dough on lined baking sheet, giving a bit of room for spreading.
- Bake 20 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Melt butter in pot and mix in parsley and garlic powder.
- Brush garlic butter over naan and return to oven for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown.
- Remove and serve.
- Enjoy!
