This skillet-made flatbread features a soft, flexible texture and a golden-brown finish, created from a blend of almond flour, eggs, and cream cheese. The preparation results in a warm, handheld bread that can be folded or topped with various ingredients. It offers a simple alternative to traditional baked goods, requiring only a few minutes in a pan and no yeast or rising time.

About This Recipe

The preparation begins by whisking together almond flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Softened cream cheese, eggs, and olive oil are added to the dry ingredients and stirred until a thick, spreadable batter forms. Portions of the mixture are placed into a heated, greased skillet and flattened into circles. Each side is heated for several minutes until the surface turns brown and the center is set.

The ingredients include cream cheese and almond flour, which provide the primary structure and moisture for the bread. Eggs are used as a binding agent to hold the dry ingredients together during the cooking process. Baking powder is included in the batter to influence the rise of the flatbread while it is in the skillet. Salt is added to the mixture, and additional seasonings like garlic powder or dried herbs are sometimes stirred in before cooking.

The finished flatbread is removed from the skillet and served while warm. The recipe is modified by adding shredded mozzarella to the batter for a different texture or by including cinnamon and sweetener for a sweet variation. The bread is stored in the refrigerator or freezer and is reheated in a pan or toaster. Each piece is topped with ingredients such as avocado, fried eggs, or butter during the final assembly.
