Baked Brie with a Keto Crust - Keto Recipes



The one of my favorite cheeses is baked brie. A while ago My friend had a party, and one of the appetizers was a baked brie wrapped in phyllo-dough. It looked delicious, so I knew I had to make a keto version with cheesy dough.

For this recipe, I also added in some bacon bits and a few tablespoons of chopped, sauteed mushrooms, which took this baked brie to the next level. You don’t have to use both of those though; it would still be incredibly delicious with caramelized onions and pancetta, or sauteed zucchini slices and salami.
The great thing about this recipe is that it is incredibly easy and quick to make. From start to finish, it takes roughly 45 minutes and heats up really well the next day!

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 230-gram wheel of brie
  • ¼ cup chopped and sauteed button mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons bacon bits
  • 1 tablespoon butter
The Execution
  1. In a bowl, mix your almond flour and baking powder.
  2. In a separate microwavable bowl, heat up your mozzarella cheese.
  3. Mix your mozzarella and almond flour until it has the consistency of dough.
  4. Quickly place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it into a circle using a rolling pin.
  5. Place your brie cheese into the center of the dough.
  6. Top the brie with the mushrooms and bacon.
  7. Using a knife, make a cut in the dough from the brie to the outside. Make similar cuts around the entire brick of cheese.
  8. Take an individual piece of dough and bring it up onto the top of the brie/mushrooms/bacon. Continue wrapping the brie with the pieces of dough.
  9. Once the entire brick of brie is covered, brush butter over the dough.
  10. Bake on parchment paper at 350 for 30 minutes or until the dough has become a nice golden brown.

Creamy Keto Potato Salad - Keto Recipes

There are a few foods that I have never been able to bring myself to buy pre-made. Guacamole is one because the amount of work involved is worth the fresh taste. The other is potato salad. Why would I buy a pre-made potato salad that I eventually doctor up by adding more spices, more mustard, and more time when I could have just prepared it myself? Well, in theory anyway. Sure, I hate buying potato salad but nine times out of ten I wouldn’t actually make it either because it is time consuming! Anyone who has ever made fresh potato salad knows there is a fine line between under cooked taters and mashed potato salad. No thanks. Luckily, since I’ve been enlightened in the ways of ketogenic living I’ve also fell in love with “potato salad” all over again and now it’s easier than ever! The beauty about swapping out the starchy root vegetable for cauliflower florets is in the cooking and prep time. No more peeling and boiling potatoes that need time to cool and rest before you’ve f...

Trump, Putin and a Test of the Presidential Power

The president of the United States phoned into Fox News on Saturday night for a non-interview interview about the non-emergency emergency along the southern border. About eight minutes into the 22-minute bit of stagecraft, the Fox host, Jeanine Pirro, changed topics and asked President Donald Trump about a New York Times article from the night before that revealed new details about federal probes into his possible links to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Times disclosed that after Trump fired the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, James Comey, who was investigating Russian efforts to sabotage the 2016 presidential campaign, the FBI was so alarmed it began examining whether Trump himself had been “working on behalf of Russia against American interests.” Pirro embraced the moment, chuckling slightly and teeing up what should have been a softball question. “So, I’m going to ask you: Are you now or have you ever worked for Ru...
