Ingredients

• 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup Pimentos, drained and diced
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Onion powder
• 0.5 tsp Paprika
• 0.25 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 Egg
• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the pimento cheese: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sharp cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, diced pimentos, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth. Set aside.

Step 2

Prepare the keto sandwich bread: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the almond flour and mozzarella cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute, or until the cheese is melted and the mixture can be stirred into a dough.

Step 4

Add the egg and melted butter to the cheese mixture and knead until a smooth dough forms.

Step 5

Place the dough on the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a thin, rectangular layer about 8x10 inches in size.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until it turns golden brown and sets.

Step 7

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before cutting it into equal-sized sandwich slices.

Step 8

Assemble the sandwich: Spread the prepared pimento cheese onto half of the cheese bread slices, then top with the remaining slices to form sandwiches.

Step 9

Optional: For a warm, gooey interior, lightly toast the completed sandwiches in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, until heated through and slightly crispy.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Pimento Cheese Sandwich!
