Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 150 grams Almond flour
- 2 large Egg
- 200 grams Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 50 grams Cream cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Cook until fully browned.
Stir in the paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper, mixing well. Let the mixture cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and add in the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Mix until well combined.
Combine the dry ingredients with the cheese mixture to form a dough.
Divide the dough into two halves. Roll out one half between two sheets of parchment paper to fit the base of the baking dish.
Place the rolled dough into the prepared baking dish. Spread the meat filling evenly over the dough.
Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the filling, sealing the edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes until the top is golden brown.
Allow to cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve.
