Multipurpose, Low Carb and Keto Friendly
If you learn how to make one low carb dough , this is it, because it is so versatile. You can use it for pizza, calzones, garlic knots, bagels and even cinnamon rolls.
This is a flatbread dough that Carolyn gives Tom Naughton credit for the starting idea. I've come across many variations on this recipe. It seems like every blogger has their own customized version. I think this recipe by Carolyn is one of the best. Her recipe is a little sturdier than the original. She uses butter instead of cream cheese, some coconut flour and a little baking powder. That gets the dough to rise up a little bit and you get that buttery rich flavor.
Check her blog for all the other uses of this dough (the link is at the end of this article).

Ingredients
- 6 ounces pre-shredded part skim mozzarella
- 5 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup blanched almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Sprinkle a clean counter or a large silicone baking mat with almond flour.
- In a large saucepan, melt the cheese and butter together over low heat until they are melted and can be stirred together.
- Remove from heat and add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. Add the egg and stir everything together until a cohesive forms. Use a rubber spatula to really knead the dough together in the pan. It may still contain some streaks of cheese.
- Turn the dough out onto the prepared work surface and knead until uniform. This will only take a little kneading. If your dough is still very sticky, add a tablespoon or two more almond flour and work it in.
Bake 15 to 20 minutes at 350°F
