Garlic & Parm~ Easy Keto Dinner Rolls
(Gluten Free & 1 Net Carb Each)
The dough that you make with this recipe is also quite versatile. Use your imagination and change up the spices to go with your meal.
And, by adding this recipe to your Keto Bread arsenal you are helping to ensure your success…seriously. Bread is the downfall of so many would be successful Keto-ers.
The Ingredients
The Keto Garlic Rolls:
- Mozzarella cheese part skim low moisture shredded
- Full fat cream cheese
- Almond flour
- Coconut flour
- Baking powder
This might seem like a lot of baking powder to experienced bread bakers.
But Low Carb bread doesn’t have much “rise” on it’s own. If it’s been a million years since you opened your can you should think about replacing it.No, there isn’t anything “wrong” with it but it might not give your bread as much “lift” as you are looking for.
Fresh and “aluminum free”, high quality baking powder will pay off in the flavor of your rolls.
- garlic powder
- eggs
When you’re baking, it’s best to use “room temperature” eggs. I know that no one leaves eggs out on the counter. Putting them in a bowl of warm water while you gather ingredients is a great way to get them to room temp faster.
- Parmesan cheese In the green can
Rolling the tops in Parmesan gives these rolls a great flavor and makes the tops of the rolls a little bit crispy. You can roll the whole dough ball in the Parmesan but I find that it makes the rolls a bit too salty. Thom loves them this way though….
This is one of those “personal preference” things.
Butter & Garlic Topping
- garlic powder
- butter – melted
- Dried parsley *optional
Generously brush the tops of the rolls with the butter mixture just before serving…it makes them taste wonderful and look irresistible.
The Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Oil a 9 inch cast iron skillet. Or, line a 9 inch cake pan with parchment and oil well.
- In a small bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder and baking powder.
- Add mozzarella and cream cheese to a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover the cream cheese with mozzarella (this will prevent the cream cheese from popping and making a mess).
- Melt in the microwave at 30 second intervals. After each 30 seconds, stir cheese until cheese is melted and uniform. Do not microwave the full time at once because some of the cheese will burn and become hard to work with.
- Combine all ingredients EXCEPT PARMESAN in a large bowl with gloved and oiled hands or in a food processor with dough blade attachment. Pulse on high speed until the dough is uniform. The dough will be quite sticky either way.
- Scoop out dough and knead uniform dough ball. Lightly coat your hands with oil and divide dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each dough between your palms until it forms a round ball.
- Roll the top of each dough ball in Parmesan. Place 1 ball in the center and the remaining 7 balls circling the pan one inch apart.
- Bake rolls for about 25-30 minutes in the middle rack of your oven, or until rolls are golden brown.
- While rolls are baking, make the garlic topping. Melt butter and add garlic & parsley. When rolls are finished, brush tops generously with garlic butter topping. Rolls are best eaten warm but can be reheated in the microwave. Do not overheat or they will melt. This is a fathead-based dough so “warm” not burning hot is best.
- Stored covered in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Serve with more butter…..mmmm.

I don’t see why you couldn’t use a hand mixer.
