The ketogenic diet has become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. It can help with weight loss, improve blood sugar control, and reduce inflammation.

This almond flour flatbread is light, fluffy, and full of flavor. It's the perfect way to enjoy all your favorite toppings without sacrificing your macros.

Why It Works

• Almond flour is a great source of fiber and protein, and it has a low glycemic index, which means it won't spike your blood sugar levels.
• Baking powder helps the flatbread to rise, giving it a light and fluffy texture.
• Mozzarella cheese is a good source of calcium and protein, and it melts beautifully, creating a gooey and flavorful topping.
• Bell peppers and onions add sweetness, crunch, and flavor to the flatbread.
• Baking the flatbread at a high temperature gives it a crispy crust and a chewy interior.
