INGREDIENT NOTES AND THEIR KETO SUBSTITUTIONS:
KETO BREAD:
- We utilize low-carb keto bread because it provides a firm base while keeping the toast low in carbohydrates. As a substitute, you can use almond-flour or coconut-flour bread.
BUTTER:
- We utilize unsalted butter because it adds richness and helps create a flavorful garlic topping. As another choice, you might use olive oil or ghee.
GARLIC:
- Fresh garlic provides a strong savory flavor to the toast. As a substitute, you can use half tsp. garlic powder.
MOZZARELLA:
- Mozzarella provides a soft, stretchy, and creamy texture when melted. As a further choice, you may utilize provolone or Monterey Jack.
CHEDDAR:
- Cheddar adds a rich and sharp cheesy flavor. As a different choice, you might use Colby Jack or additional mozzarella.
PARMESAN:
- Parmesan gives the topping a savory, salty flavor and contributes to its golden hue. You can substitute Pecorino Romano.
JALAPEÑO:
- Fresh jalapeño adds a spicy flavor and crunchy texture. You can use mild green chili for less heat.
PARSLEY:
- Freshness and a subtle herbal flavor are added by parsley. You can substitute dried parsley or Italian seasoning.
