Keto Tuna Melt Recipe
My favorite sandwich in the world done up the keto way!
Ingredients
- 3-ounce pouch albacore tuna
- 1 tablespoon mayo
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped celery
- 1/2 tablespoon finely chopped onion
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons butter divided
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Prepare the ingredients for the tuna salad first: mix the pouch of tuna with the mayo, celery, onion, garlic powder, and pinch of salt.
- Next, prepare your bread. Start by melting 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small microwave-safe bowl for about 30 seconds until melted. Next, whisk in the egg. Then stir in the almond flour, baking powder, Parmesan cheese, and pinch of salt.
- Microwave the mixture for 90 seconds. Remove and let sit until it’s cool enough to handle. Slice it in half.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter and cook each side of the bread for about 2 minutes per side, until toasted.
- Place the bread on a baking sheet and top with the tuna salad. Add the shredded cheddar cheese on top. Bake at 400°F for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Enjoy!
