Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 4 slices Sliced ham
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and then heat for an additional 30 seconds if needed, until the cheeses are completely melted and combined.

Step 3

Add 1 cup of almond flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of onion powder to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until well combined.

Step 4

Add the egg to the dough mixture and mix until a dough forms. It may be sticky at first; knead with your hands until smooth. If needed, wet your hands slightly to handle the dough better.

Step 5

Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then shape into a bagel form, making sure there is a hole in the center.

Step 6

Place the bagels onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the top of each bagel with sesame seeds, pressing gently to adhere them to the surface.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown.

Step 8

Remove bagels from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack.

Step 9

Slice each bagel in half horizontally. Place 1 slice of Swiss cheese and 1 slice of ham on the bottom half of each bagel. Top with the remaining half of the bagel.

Step 10

Optional: To melt the cheese, you can place the assembled bagels back into the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the cheese starts to melt.

Step 11

Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Keto Ham and Cheese Bagels!
