Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cups Sour cream
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 10 ounces Frozen spinach, thawed and drained
- 1 cups Artichoke hearts, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 Eggs, beaten
- 1.5 cups Breadcrumbs
- 3 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, spinach, artichoke hearts, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Cover the mixture and refrigerate for 1 hour to firm up.
Using your hands, scoop and form the chilled mixture into 1-inch balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Prepare a breading station with three shallow bowls: one for the flour, one for the beaten eggs, and one for the breadcrumbs.
Dredge each dip ball in flour, coating evenly. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally roll it in the breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Place the breaded balls back on the baking sheet. Freeze the balls for 15 minutes to help them hold their shape during frying.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the dip balls in small batches for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the balls from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the crispy spinach artichoke dip balls warm, with your favorite dipping sauce if desired.
