Gluten Free Keto Pesto Flatbread

With this gluten free keto flatbread you can enjoy a low carb snack, topped with pesto and mozzarella! Ready in 30 minutes or less!

When you're gluten free and following a keto diet, bread isn't usually on the menu. And truly, there is nothing quite like a warm, freshly baked loaf of bread.

But, who wants to spend all of that time with the yeast and the warm environment and the rising and the second rising?

Not me!

This flatbread recipe is one of my favorites! No yeast or rising time required. First, it's super simple to make. Made with only need 4 ingredients and it's packed with protein! Plus, it's already gluten free and can easily be adapted for keto! Then, this dough is perfect for flatbread, pizza dough, garlic knots, stromboli, or even soft pretzels!

In order to minimize carbs, I used almond flour with just 3 grams of net carbs and 3 grams of fiber per 1/4 cup. Then, you will need to find a plain, Greek yogurt that is keto-friendly. Simply mix the dough, roll between two sheets of parchment paper, and bake. The possibilities are endless!

How to Make Gluten Free Keto Flatbread

Storage

Keto flatbread will keep in the fridge for 4-5 days, depending on the toppings. You can also store in the dough in the fridge for 2-3 days before baking.

Keto-Friendly Yogurt

Greek yogurt is full of protein, but it can also have a lot of sugar. You will need to check the label, but there are some that can be enjoyed on a keto diet.

  1. Pointerland Sisters- Greek plain yogurt  3g carbs and 2g fiber = 1g of NET carbs
  2. Fage- 5g carbs
  3. Chobani- 6g carbs
  4. Ratio- 3g carbs, but no plain
  5. Two Good- 4g carbs, but no plain

Is bread keto friendly?

Yes, there are some bread products that are keto friendly. They often have a high fiber content to offset the carbohydrates or they may use mostly almond flour.

Can I make keto friendly pizza crust?

Absolutely! This keto flatbread recipe can work as a pizza crust. Any pizza crust made using eggs, cream cheese, cheese, almond flour, coconut flour, or cauliflower would be low in carbs and could be keto-friendly.
