This gluten free almond flour focaccia bread is high in healthy fats and low in net carbs. Featuring almond flour instead of white flour, this bread is a good source of healthy fats, fiber, and vitamin E, all with only 3 g of net carbs per slice. It's simple to put together, and contains no added oil, unlike most focaccia recipes

DOUGH
- 6 oz (168 g) Shredded mozzarella cheese, low moisture part skim
- 1 1/2 cup (168 g) Almond flour
- 1 oz (28 g) Cream cheese
- 1 large (50 g) Egg
- 1 tbsp (18 g) Baking powder

TOPPING
- 1 tbsp (3 g) Rosemary, dried
- 1 tsp (3 g) Flaky salt

1. Preheat your oven to 350F. Line a 9" square baking dish with parchment paper, and lightly grease the paper with oil

2. Add the mozzarella to a large glass bowl. Cut the cream cheese into cubes, and add on top. Microwave for 1 minute, stirring halfway with a silicone spatula

3. Mix in the almond flour and baking powder with a silicone spatula. Add in a beaten egg, and combine with the spatula. Switch to your hands, and knead until fully combined

4. Press the dough to the baking dish. Make dimples in the dough with your fingers. Top with rosemary and salt, and lightly press them into the dough. Optionally spray the top with olive oil

5. Bake at 350F until puffed and lightly golden brown, about 15-20 minutes

6. Allow it to cool totally in the pan before cutting into 9 slices
