Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 units large eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 8 units breakfast sausage links
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for about 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the cheese is melted and combined.
Add the almond flour mixture and one of the eggs to the melted cheese. Mix well until a dough forms. You may need to knead the dough with your hands to fully incorporate the ingredients.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and lightly cook the sausage links until they are just browned, about 4-5 minutes. They don’t need to be fully cooked, as they will finish cooking in the oven.
Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Flatten each piece of dough into a rectangle.
Place a sausage link in the center of each dough piece, then fold and seal the dough around the sausage.
Place the kolaches on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, beat the remaining egg and brush the tops of the kolaches with the egg wash for a golden-brown finish.
Bake the kolaches in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving warm. Enjoy your keto-friendly sausage kolache!
