INGREDIENTS:
• 1 1/4 cups Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
• 4 tbsp. Almond Flour
• 3 tbsp. Coconut Flour
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tsp. Italian Seasoning
• 4 oz. Ham
• 3.5 oz. Cheddar Cheese
• Salt and Pepper to Taste
INGREDIENT NOTES:
Almond Flour:
Used for the low-carb dough base.
Shredded Cheese:
Helps create a cheesy, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Ham:
Choose deli-style or cooked ham for easy filling.
Egg:
Adds structure and helps bind the dough.
Spices:
Use garlic powder, oregano, and salt for extra flavor.
Cream Cheese:
Softens the dough and adds richness.
INSTRUCTION:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F. In a microwave or toaster oven, melt your mozzarella cheese. Heat for about 1 minute in the microwave, then in 10-second intervals, or bake in the oven for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and your seasonings (salt, pepper, and an Italian blend seasoning).
Step 3: Once the mozzarella is melted, add it to the flour mixture and begin working it in.
Step 4: After about a minute, when the cheese has cooled slightly, add the egg and mix everything together. Use two utensils to help combine the dough.
Step 5: Once the dough is well combined and moist, transfer it to a flat surface lined with parchment paper.
Step 6: Place a second sheet of parchment paper over the dough and use a rolling pin (or your hands) to flatten it out.
Step 7: Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut diagonal lines starting from the edges of the dough toward the center. Leave a strip of dough in the middle, about 4 inches wide, untouched.
Step 8: Layer slices of ham and cheddar cheese along the uncut stretch of dough.
Step 9: Begin folding the dough over the filling, one section at a time, to cover the ham and cheese.
Step 10: Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the stromboli turns golden brown.
Step 11: Slice it up and serve!
