Easy Keto Flatbread

Creating an easy low-carb flatbread was a must for our family since it’s a type of bread that was enjoyed prior to going keto.

I knew that in order to get this recipe right, I would have to create a recipe that produced a soft, flexible, and bread-like texture.

Since this recipe does not use gluten or wheat, I had to rely on other ingredients that have worked well in the past.

That’s why the almond flour flatbread also uses a small amount of golden flaxseed meal, psyllium husk powder, and xantham gum. What is a bonus is that using those ingredients makes it higher in fiber.

That’s right, consider this your high-fiber keto flatbread recipe!

How To Make Keto Flatbread Easily

Making this gluten-free flatbread is pretty straightforward. If baking in the oven, start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees. Then, line two baking sheets with a silicone mat or parchment paper. 

In a large bowl, you’ll combine the almond flour, flaxseed meal, psyllium powder, xanthan gum, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and baking powder.

Then add the hot water, olive oil, and egg. Mix the dough well with a silicone spatula.

Next, divide the dough into six equal portions and cover with a wet paper towel. Between two pieces of parchment paper, roll the dough with a rolling pin.

Then place the flatbreads on the prepared baking pans. Use a pastry brush to brush each flatbread with olive oil.

Sprinkle the sea salt flakes on the bread and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until lightly brown.

Feel free to serve the flatbread straight from the oven or at room temperature.

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.

How To Cook A Low-Carb Flatbread On The Stove

This flatbread can also be cooked on the stovetop over medium-high heat. To do so, divide the dough into 12 pieces and roll out your dough between two pieces of parchment paper.

Next, preheat a heavy bottom skillet and add one teaspoon of oil. Divide the dough into 12 pieces. Roll out your dough between two pieces of parchment paper.

Then cook the flatbread in batches for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot or at room temperature.
