Yield

8 squares (9×9 inch pan) or 1 round focaccia

Macros (approx. per square)

  • Net carbs: ~3–4 g

  • Fat: high

  • Protein: moderate


Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1½ cups almond flour (finely blanched)

  • ¼ cup coconut flour

  • 1 tbsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp garlic powder


Wet Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs, room temperature

  • ⅓ cup olive oil (or melted butter)

  • ¼ cup sour cream or full-fat Greek yogurt

  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar


Cheese

  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella (low-moisture melts best)

  • ½ cup shredded parmesan or sharp cheddar


Topping

  • 2 tbsp olive oil (for dimpling)

  • 1 tsp flaky sea salt

  • 1 tsp dried rosemary or Italian seasoning

  • Optional: minced garlic, red pepper flakes


Instructions

1. Prep

  • Preheat oven to 375°F / 190°C

  • Line or grease a 9×9 inch pan or round cake pan


2. Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a large bowl, whisk almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until evenly combined


3. Mix Wet Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, olive oil, sour cream, and apple cider vinegar until smooth


4. Combine

  • Add wet mixture to dry ingredients

  • Mix until thick and uniform

  • Fold in shredded mozzarella and parmesan

The batter will be thick and sticky, closer to dough than cake batter.


5. Shape & Dimple

  • Spread dough evenly into prepared pan

  • Wet fingers with water or oil

  • Press dimples all over the surface like classic focaccia


6. Top

  • Drizzle olive oil over the top

  • Sprinkle with flaky salt and rosemary

  • Add optional garlic or pepper flakes if using


7. Bake

  • Bake for 20–25 minutes

  • Top should be golden brown and center set

  • For extra crisp edges, bake an additional 5 minutes


8. Cool & Serve

  • Let cool 10 minutes before slicing

  • Best served warm


Texture Tips

  • For fluffier bread: separate eggs, whip whites to soft peaks, and fold in at the end

  • For crispier bottom: preheat the pan with olive oil before adding dough

  • For more chew: replace half the mozzarella with provolone


Storage & Reheating

  • Store in fridge up to 5 days

  • Reheat in oven or air fryer to restore crispness

  • Freezes well for up to 2 months


Variations

  • Garlic Parmesan: brush with garlic butter after baking

  • Olive & Herb: press sliced olives into dough before baking

  • Jalapeño Cheddar: swap cheeses and add diced jalapeños
