Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine almond flour, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add olive oil and water to the dry mixture. Stir until you have a well-combined and slightly sticky dough.
Using your hands, take small portions of dough and roll them into balls about the size of a marble. Place each ball onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each.
Once all the dough is shaped into balls, use the back of a fork to slightly flatten each ball, creating a bite-sized disk shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch. Avoid over-baking as they will become too hard.
Allow the parmesan bites to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a delicious snack or appetizer.
