Ultimate Keto Grilled Cheese

There is nothing quite satisfying as picking up a big, melted slice of grilled cheese sandwich and biting into that melty goodness. Especially when it’s low-carb!

INGREDIENTS:

• ¼ cup almond flour (25 g/ 0.9 oz)

•  ½ tsp gluten-free baking powder

• 1 Tbsp light olive oil or extra virgin olive oil (15 ml) pinch of sea salt

• 1 large egg

Filling:

• 1 slice cheddar cheese (28 g/ 1 oz)

• 1 slice Swiss cheese (28 g/ 1 oz)

• 2 Tbsp Red Eye Bacon Jam

•  2-3 slices Brie cheese and handful of spinach

• 3-4 oz cooked chicken

•  ¼ sliced avocado

•  1-2 slices Jarlsberg cheese

•  1-2 slices Pastrami

• 3-4 slices Provolone cheese and 2 slices red onion

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Place all of the bread ingredients into a small bowl and mix well.
2. Grease a ramekin, or like me find a bread-shaped storage container. Pour the mixture into the container and shake to distribute evenly.
3. Microwave on high for 90 seconds. Turn out and cool on a rack. Note: If you don’t have a microwave, you can use the oven. Preheat to 175 °C/ 350 °F and bake for 12-15 minutes or until cooked through.
4. When cool, cut in half and spread with butter, if desired. Place the cheese slices in the middle and toast for approx. 5 minutes (or try any of our suggested variations).
5. Eat with gusto. Store, wrapped, in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
