At Ajpal, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe. My goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.

This simple, delicious bread is my new favorite recipe – and I know it’s going to be yours, too!

How to Make Easy Keto Jalapeno Cheese Cloud Bread

This gluten and grain free low carb cloud bread is super simple – and can be made either soft and foldable (for a pita, tortilla, or wrap style bread) – OR with a crunchier crust like a fresh baked artisan bread.

Keto Jalapeno Cheese Bread Ingredients

First assemble the following ingredients:

  • Shredded cheese (1 cup) – Use shredded cheese to add a rich, gooey base to the bread, mozzarella or shredded cheddar.
  • Grated parmesan (½ cup) – Add grated parmesan for extra flavor and a slightly firmer texture.
  • Eggs (2) – Use eggs to help bind everything together and give the bread structure.
  • Jalapenos (I¼ cup) – Stir in jalapenos to bring a spicy kick and a bright, tangy bite, remove the seeds if you want the breads less spicy.

Steps to Make Keto Jalapeno Cheese Flatbreads

Once you have assembled the ingredients, use this method:

Mix. Combine the shredded cheese and egg in a bowl and mix it until the ingredients are fully combined.

Spread. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat divide the mixture equally into four or six equal parts (depending on the size bread you want). Place jalapenos into the bread mixtures individually.

Bake. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese has fully melted and created a slight brown crust. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly then enjoy!

Tips and Tricks to Perfect 4 Ingredient Keto Jalapeno Cheese Bread

The method for each is a little different – and for the slightly crunchy crust you’ll need a special perforated silicone bread baking mat (I use a Silpain mat) to raise your bread up over any excess liquid runoff, giving you a deliciously fresh baked bread crispy crust.

Make it a tortilla. Bake on parchment paper or foil and trim off any egg liquid that runs off from rolls. Don’t cook until crunchy browned – bread will be fully cooked, but not crispy on the top.

Make it crispy. Use a Silpain mat or similar perforated silicone baking mat over your cookie sheet. Any extra egg liquid will drop below the mat, allowing the bread to create a crispier crust that mimics fresh artisan bread.
