Begin by preparing the low-carb bread base. In a small microwave-safe bowl, mix together the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and melted butter.
Add the egg to the flour mixture and whisk until you get a smooth batter.
Microwave the mixture on high for about 90 seconds, until it firms up and becomes a small bread round.
Remove the bread from the microwave and let it cool slightly before slicing it in half horizontally to create two slices of bread.
Preheat the oven broiler to high.
Place the bread slices on a baking sheet, and top each slice with cheddar cheese.
Season the cheese with black pepper and paprika for added flavor.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
