You can serve it as an appetizer at your next gathering or enjoy it with a bowl of soup for an absolutely comforting meal. Plus, there’s something innately satisfying about gooey cheese and fluffy bread that will have your taste buds dancing.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to create this cheesy wonder:

• 1 ¾ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 oz cream cheese
• 2 large eggs
• 1 ½ cups almond flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder (optional, but oh-so-rewarding!)
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Extra cheese for topping (because why not?)

Steps to Cheesy Bliss

Let’s get into the nitty-gritty of crafting this beautiful loaf of Cheesy Bread. Gather your ingredients and follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) so it’s nice and toasty for your bread. Who doesn’t love the smell of freshly baked goodies?

2. Melt the Cheeses: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for about 30 seconds, stir, then pop it back in for another 25 seconds until it’s melted and gooey. Get ready for some elbow grease!

3. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Feel free to get creative here—add some chopped herbs or spices you adore!

4. Combine It All: Add the melted cheese mixture and the eggs to the dry ingredients. Mix until everything is so evenly blended that it starts to look like sticky dough.

5. Get it in a Pan: Grease a loaf pan (or line it with parchment paper) and scoop the cheesy dough into it. Optional: sprinkle some extra cheese on top for a golden, crispy finish. Trust me, your future self will thank you!

6. Bake: Slide that baby into the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until it’s golden brown and smells like heaven. Maybe add some dramatic oven-opening flair here—it’s all part of the cooking adventure!

7. Cool and Serve: Let your bread cool for a few minutes before slicing it up. You deserve to savor every cheesy, low-carb bite!

Cooking Tips That’ll Make You a Pro
