This flatbread is not only low in carbs but also packed with flavor, making it perfect as an appetizer or a delicious snack.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup coconut flour
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded Emmental cheese
• 4 large eggs
• 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted) or unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 5-6 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
• Optional: fresh parsley for garnish

Cooking Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded Emmental cheese, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted coconut oil (or butter). Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well until a dough forms.
4. Fold in the crumbled bacon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
5. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and flatten it out to your desired thickness (about 1/4 inch works well). Use a spatula or your hands to shape it into a rectangle or circle.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the flatbread is firm to the touch.
7. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
