How to Serve Keto Focaccia
You can serve this almond flour focaccia bread as a sandwich or slice it in wedges as part of a Mediterranean mezze platter. The flavours are gorgeous paired with slow-roasted tomatoes and grilled red peppers. It’s also nice served simply dipped in quality olive oil, sea salt flake, balsamic or even a little dukkah spice.
Recipe Variations
If you don’t like olives you can simply leave them out or substitute them with something else. Sun-dried tomatoes are a great substitute for olives. The same with the herbs, feel free to omit them or switch them out for another herb of choice.

Keto Focaccia with Rosemary & Olives
Enjoy the best of both worlds with this low carb focaccia bread recipe. Made with almond flour, it's also gluten-free. Topped with fragrant rosemary, olives and sea salt, this delicious keto focaccia is incredibly easy to make.
Ingredients
Focaccia
- 3 cups almond flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 5 large eggs
- ⅓ cup almond milk
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Topping
- 1-2 teaspoon salt flakes
- ½ cup olives
- 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary leaves
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare a 9’’ x 13’’ baking tray with baking paper and brush the paper with olive oil. Set aside.
- Combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- Add two eggs (beaten), almond milk, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar to the flour mixture and stir very well until a smooth dough forms. Set aside.
- Separate the whites of the three remaining eggs and place them in a medium bowl. Beat them with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
- Add the beaten whites to the dough, string slowly to incorporate. As you stir, the mix will lose a lot of air, but enough will remain to make the focaccia super fluffy.
- Place the batter in the prepared baking tray. Spread it evenly. It doesn’t need to go up to the edges as it’ll grow in the oven.
- Mix the olive oil with rosemary leaves and let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Brush the rosemary olive oil over the focaccia, top with olives and sprinkle sea salt flakes on top.
- Bake the focaccia for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean and the top is brownish.
- Let it cool before removing from the baking dish.
Notes
- Store the focaccia in a sealed bag for up to 4 days on the counter or up to a week in the fridge.
- Reheat leftover focaccia in the oven or toaster for a better texture.
- Use good quality, cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil for the best results.
