Ingredients

• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 6 slices cooked ham slices
• 1 unit large egg
• 2 tablespoons almond flour
• 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute or until the cheeses are melted and blend easily when stirred.

Step 3

Stir the melted cheese mixture thoroughly until smooth.

Step 4

Add the almond flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and egg to the cheese mixture. Stir or knead the mixture until a smooth dough forms.

Step 5

Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it out into a rectangular shape, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 6

Remove the top layer of parchment paper. Lay the ham slices evenly over the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch of dough uncovered along one short edge.

Step 7

Using the parchment paper to help, carefully roll the dough from the ham-covered short edge towards the uncovered edge, creating a spiral roll.

Step 8

Pinch the seam closed gently to ensure it stays intact during baking.

Step 9

Transfer the roll onto the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 11

Let the roll cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 12

Enjoy your Keto Cheese and Ham Roll warm, as a satisfying and savory snack!
