Ingredients List
To make Keto Crispy Reuben Roll-Ups, gather the following ingredients:
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup deli corned beef, chopped (halal)
- 1/2 cup sauerkraut, drained
- 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 1/4 cup Thousand Island dressing (or a keto-friendly alternative)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Hereโs how to make your Keto Crispy Reuben Roll-Ups:
Preheat the oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the dough: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and softened cream cheese. Microwave the mixture for about 1 minute, then stir until combined and smooth. Add the egg, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, mixing well until a dough forms.
Roll out the dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Add the filling: Carefully remove the top sheet of parchment and layer the chopped corned beef, sauerkraut, shredded Swiss cheese, and a drizzle of Thousand Island dressing over the dough, leaving about an inch border on all sides.
Roll it up: Starting from one edge, gently roll the dough into a log, sealing the edges to create a nice tight roll.
Slice the Roll-Ups: Using a sharp knife, slice the log into even pieces, about 1 inch wide.
Bake: Place the roll-ups on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Serve: Allow to cool slightly, then garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm with extra Thousand Island dressing on the side for dipping.
Tips for Success
- Dough consistency: The dough should be stretchy and not overly sticky. If itโs too sticky, add a little more almond flour.
- Chilling the dough: If you find the dough is too soft to roll, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes before rolling.
- Sharp knife: Use a serrated knife to avoid squishing the roll-ups as you slice them.
- Space between roll-ups: Make sure to leave some space on the baking sheet for the roll-ups to expand as they cook.
Possible Variations
- Gluten-Free: This recipe is already gluten-free, thanks to almond flour, making it suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
- Streusel Topping: For a fun twist, sprinkle a nut-based streusel topping over the roll-ups before baking for extra crunch.
- Vegetarian Option: Swap the corned beef for a hearty mix of mushrooms and spinach for a tasty vegetarian version.
- Cheesy Twist: Try using cheddar cheese in place of Swiss for a stronger flavor profile.
Storage Recommendations
- Storage: Any leftover roll-ups can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: Reheat them in the oven at 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) for about 10-12 minutes or until warmed through for the best texture.
- Freezing: To freeze, place cooled roll-ups in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, bake from frozen at 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) for 25-30 minutes.
