Everything Pretzels – The Healthy Keto Recipe
This healthy pretzel recipe is one of my personal favorites, after making many keto recipes I have found one common theme and what I’ve learned for sure is that keto cakes can be made from eggs and keto breads can be made from cheese. There’s really nothing you can’t do with eggs or cheese plus a little almond or coconut flour if you’re craving a bread-like treat. Huge props to UpLateAnyway.com, who inspired the dough for this recipe with her famous low-carb stromboli recipe, which, to me, makes her a ketogenic hero

Ingredients
FOR THE TOPPING
1 teaspoon pretzel salt or sea salt
½ teaspoon poppy seeds
½ teaspoon sesame seeds
½ teaspoon onion flakes
½ teaspoon garlic flakes
FOR THE PRETZELS
1 tablespoon Golden Ghee (here), melted, plus additional for brushing
½ cup shredded low-moisture organic mozzarella cheese
3 tablespoons almond flour
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 large free-range egg, lightly beaten
Mustard, for dipping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the ghee and mozzarella. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals until the mozzarella is melted and you can easily handle it with your hands and roll it into a ball.
- Add the almond flour, salt, and garlic powder to the mozzarella and stir to combine, and then mix in the egg. If the mixture won’t combine like a dough, microwave it in 10-second intervals until it does.
- Lay out a sheet of parchment paper. Use your hands to roll the dough on the parchment into a long rope about ½ inch in diameter.
- Cut the dough rope into 6 pieces and form each into a pretzel. Transfer the parchment with the pretzels to a rimmed baking sheet.
- Brush each pretzel with melted ghee, and then sprinkle each with the topping.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Serve with a small cup of mustard for dipping (if using).
