Report
This keto grilled cheese sandwich is made with coconut flour bread, then cooked in butter to golden, crispy, cheesy perfection!
Share:
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter divided
- 4 tablespoons whole milk divided
- 2 large eggs divided
- ¼ teaspoon salt divided
- 4 tablespoons coconut flour 28 grams, divided
- 1 teaspoon baking powder divided, gluten-free if needed
- 2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Place 2 tablespoons of butter in a square glass sandwich-size container. Microwave until melted, about 50 seconds.
- Mix in 2 tablespoons of milk, 1 egg, and ⅛ teaspoon of salt. Add 2 tablespoons of coconut flour and ½ teaspoon of baking powder and mix until thoroughly combined.
- Microwave the batter for 90 seconds. Allow it to rest for a minute, then carefully run a knife around the edges and release the bread from the container. If the bottom sticks, carefully run a small spatula underneath. Place the bread on a wire rack and allow it to cool while you make another slice.
- Repeat steps 1-3 to make a second slice of bread.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Assemble the sandwich by placing two cheese slices between the bread slices you've just made.
- When the butter foams, place the sandwich in the skillet. Cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes per side, over medium-low heat. To ensure even browning, press on the sandwich with a large spatula, or better yet, place a heavy pot on top to flatten it.
- Transfer the sandwich to a cutting board. Cut it into two triangles and serve.
Notes
- Don't be tempted to cook the sandwich over high heat (or even medium heat). For the best, most even results, use medium-low heat and some patience! The perfectly golden result will be worth it.
- Each sandwich makes two servings, and each serving is big and filling. So, if you make this recipe just for yourself, save half for later.
- You can keep the leftovers in the fridge, in an airtight container on paper towels (to absorb extra moisture), for 3-4 days. Reheat them in the microwave or in a toaster oven.
