Keto Garlic Fingers

Pie pan keto garlic fingers.

Okay, another not so new recipe. But, a great variation of the low carb pizza recipe I posted previously.

If you are like me and from the east coast of Canada you know pizza is always better with garlic fingers. So I use half of my thick crust pizza recipe to make garlic fingers and half to make pizza. This fits perfectly in two pie pans.

So, whats so different? Well, not much. This actually has fewer carbs than the pizza. Instead of pizza sauce use garlic butter.

You can find garlic butter specifically at some grocery stores or you can make it (to taste) by mixing garlic and butter; then melting it in the microwave. I add Italian Seasoning or oregano as well.

Pie pan low-carb pizza. 

After spreading the butter mixture on the cooled crust add cheese (and bacon if you like) like a pizza.

Just a few changes to the pizza recipe and you have garlic fingers, a great side dish!

Here's the link to the crust recipe. Enjoy!

Cheesy Italian Cauliflower Crust (Thin)

Before baking.

I liked this recipe a lot. It ended up being pretty easy, even the first time I made it (and quick). I used to to make garlic fingers. You can also use this recipe for pizzas, or even bread and breading. 

Ingredients 

1/4 of a large head of cauliflower (1 1/2 cups grated) 

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 large egg

3-4 oz. of mozzarella cheese (I like marble too)

1/2 teaspoon Italian heb seasoning (dry)

pinch of salt

pinch of pepper

Prep Work

-Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

-Grate 1/4 large head of cauliflower (amount=1 1/2 cups)

-Line a pan with tin foil, spray with cooking spray 

Procedure

-Microwave grated cauliflower until softened (6-8 minutes), stir occasionally. Cool for 2 minutes. 

-Combine the rest of the ingredients into the bowel with the cauliflower, sir well.

-Spread on lined pan. Press down and spread evenly to create a thin crust, you can prepare the crust as thin or thick as you like. My times are for a very thin crust.

-Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden. Flip and bake for 4-6 minutes.
