Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Step 2
In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Add the cream cheese and olive oil to the eggs, mixing until fully combined and smooth.
Step 3
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring continuously to form a dough. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
Step 4
Form the dough into a ball and wrap it in plastic wrap. Allow it to rest for about 10 minutes to let the xanthan gum activate and make the dough easier to handle.
Step 5
After resting, divide the dough into four equal parts. Lightly dust a clean work surface and rolling pin with almond flour.
Step 6
Roll each piece of dough out into a thin sheet, aiming for your desired pasta thickness. Use a sharp knife or a pasta cutter to slice the dough into your preferred pasta shape, such as fettuccine or tagliatelle.
Step 7
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Gently drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the pasta starts to float and is tender to your preference.
Step 8
Drain the pasta and rinse quickly under cold water to stop further cooking. Serve immediately with your choice of keto-friendly sauce or toppings.
