Ingredients You’ll Need

Before we dive into the recipe, let’s gather our ingredients. I always recommend having everything prepped and measured out before you start cooking. It makes the whole process much smoother and more enjoyable.

For the Keto Dough:

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1/4 cup almond flour
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Philly Cheesesteak Filling:

• 1 pound thinly sliced steak (ribeye or sirloin are great choices)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 1 bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced
• 4 ounces sliced mushrooms
• 4 ounces provolone cheese slices
• 2 tablespoons butter
• Salt and pepper to taste

Step-by-Step Instructions

Alright, let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps, and you’ll be sinking your teeth into Irresistible Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls in no time. Don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty – this is where the magic happens!

1. Prepare the Keto Dough: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the cheese is completely melted and smooth.
2. Mix the Dough: Add the beaten eggs, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt to the melted cheese mixture. Stir well until everything is fully combined. The dough will be sticky – that’s normal!
3. Shape the Rolls: Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. On the prepared baking sheet, flatten each portion into a small oval shape, about 4-5 inches long. These will be our “rolls.”
4. Bake the Rolls: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and slightly firm. Let them cool slightly before handling.
5. Prepare the Steak: While the rolls are baking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced steak and cook until browned and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Sauté the Vegetables: Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside. Add the butter to the skillet. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper and cook until softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 3-5 minutes, until they are tender.
7. Combine the Filling: Return the cooked steak to the skillet with the vegetables. Toss everything together to combine.
8. Assemble the Rolls: Cut each baked keto “roll” lengthwise, like a traditional hoagie roll. Divide the Philly cheesesteak filling evenly among the rolls.
9. Add the Cheese: Top each roll with slices of provolone cheese.
10. Melt the Cheese: Place the assembled rolls under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch them carefully to prevent burning!
11. Serve and Enjoy! Remove the rolls from the broiler and let them cool slightly before serving. Get ready for a flavor explosion!

Success Tips for Perfect Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls

Want to make sure your Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls turn out absolutely perfect every time? Here are a few golden tips to guarantee success:

• Don’t Overcook the Steak: The key to tender and juicy steak is to cook it quickly over high heat. Overcooked steak will be tough and dry.
• Use Good Quality Cheese: The cheese is a crucial element in a Philly cheesesteak, so don’t skimp! Use a good quality provolone cheese for the best flavor and melt.
• Let the Dough Cool Slightly: The keto dough can be a little delicate when it’s fresh out of the oven. Let it cool slightly before handling to prevent it from tearing.
• Broil Carefully: Keep a close eye on the rolls while they’re under the broiler. The cheese can go from melted and bubbly to burnt in a matter of seconds!
• Get Creative with Toppings: While the classic Philly cheesesteak is delicious on its own, feel free to add your own personal touch. Try adding some jalapenos for a spicy kick, or a drizzle of keto-friendly hot sauce.

Variations and Adaptations

One of the best things about this recipe is that it’s so versatile! Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to create your own unique version of Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls.

• Spicy Philly Cheesesteak Rolls: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the steak while it’s cooking, or top the rolls with some sliced jalapenos.
• Mushroom Lovers’ Philly Cheesesteak Rolls: Increase the amount of mushrooms in the filling, and use a variety of different types of mushrooms for extra flavor.
• Garlic Parmesan Philly Cheesesteak Rolls: Add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese and some extra garlic powder to the keto dough for a cheesy, garlicky twist.
• Cheese Sauce: For an extra indulgent version, consider making a keto-friendly cheese sauce to drizzle over the filling. A simple sauce made with cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and a little bit of heavy cream works wonders.

Serving Suggestions

These Irresistible Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls are a complete meal on their own, but if you’re looking to round out your meal, here are a few delicious serving suggestions:

• Side Salad: A simple green salad with a light vinaigrette dressing is a refreshing and healthy accompaniment.
• Coleslaw: A creamy coleslaw adds a touch of sweetness and tanginess that complements the savory flavors of the rolls.
• Broccoli Salad: Looking for another keto-friendly side? Consider serving these rolls with a side of broccoli salad.
• Keto Fries: If you’re really craving that classic fries-and-cheesesteak combo, try making a batch of LOADED BACON CHEESE FRIES!

Or even the LOADED BACON CHEESE FRIES will pair greatly with these rolls!

Make-Ahead and Storage Instructions

These Keto Philly Cheesesteak Rolls are perfect for meal prepping! Here’s how to make them ahead of time and store them properly:

• Make-Ahead: You can prepare the keto dough and the Philly cheesesteak filling up to 2 days in advance. Store them separately in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to assemble the rolls, simply bake the dough, combine the filling, and assemble as directed.
• Storage: Store leftover assembled rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Reheating: Reheat the rolls in the oven or microwave until heated through. If reheating in the oven, wrap them in foil to prevent them from drying out.
• Freezing: For longer storage, you can freeze the assembled rolls. Wrap them individually in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
