Keto Calzones to the Rescue!

Yesterday was a crazy day at our house!  Everyone was super hungry for dinner.  I whipped up a quick batch of my fathead dough and filled it with my bolognese sauce, sauerkraut, and cheddar cheese!  Voila!  Keto calzones!  This filling combination reminds me of when my hubby and I were dating.  He used to deliver pizzas and one of the combinations was beef, onion, and sauerkraut.  When they abbreviated it, it was BOK.  Our last name is BOCK… So maybe you had to be there, but I think it’s a little funny.   You can fill these with any pizza toppings you want depending on your dietary needs.  I love that this dough is ready to bake in literally 5 minutes.  No need for takeout here!  Grab some mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, almond flour, and eggs and you have your ingredients for the dough.

To make the calzone shape, I took small balls of dough and made them flat in my hand like a mini pizza.   I put the filling in my palm area and folded the dough around it so it became crescent moon-shaped.  Place the calzones on a Silpat-lined baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes at 425 degrees.   They were the perfect thing to solve our pizza craving without all of the carbs!  I served them with a big green salad!

I hope you like these calzones as much as we do!
