For the garlic butter topping:

Instructions
1. Prepare the keto bread
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Melt mozzarella and cream cheese together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Add almond flour, eggs, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt.
- Mix until a soft dough forms.
- Shape the dough into a rectangular loaf on a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool slightly.
2. Make the cheesesteak filling
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add thinly sliced beef and cook until browned and cooked through.
- Season with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Add onions and mushrooms. Cook until softened.
- Remove from heat.
3. Stuff the bread
- Carefully cut a deep pocket lengthwise into the keto loaf without cutting all the way through.
- Place provolone cheese inside the pocket.
- Fill generously with the cooked cheesesteak mixture.
- Sprinkle mozzarella over the filling.
4. Add garlic butter
- Mix melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and Parmesan.
- Brush generously over the top of the loaf.
5. Bake
- Return the stuffed loaf to the oven.
- Bake for another 8–10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Broil for 1–2 minutes if you want a golden, crispy top.
- Rest for 5 minutes, slice, and serve warm!
