Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 4 oz Cream cheese
• 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 Egg
• 2 cups Fresh spinach, chopped
• 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese and mozzarella cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, and then heat for an additional 30 seconds until fully melted.

Step 3

Stir the almond flour and the egg into the melted cheese mixture until a dough forms. You may need to knead it with your hands a little to get everything well combined.

Step 4

Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 5

In a skillet over medium heat, wilt the chopped spinach for about 2 minutes, then remove from heat.

Step 6

Spread the wilted spinach evenly over the dough rectangle. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the spinach.

Step 7

Starting from one of the longer sides, carefully roll the dough into a tight log, using the parchment paper to help lift and roll the dough.

Step 8

Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 1/2 inch thick pinwheels and place them cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low carb savory cheese and spinach pinwheels as a delicious snack or appetizer!
