📝 Instructions

12 steps
1

Grate the mozzarella cheese and set aside.

2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Mix well.

3

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten.

4

In another bowl, combine gluten-free flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

5

Form small balls from the cheese mixture using your hands. Aim for about 1 inch in diameter.

6

Roll each cheese ball in the flour mixture, coating evenly.

7

Dip each ball into the beaten eggs, ensuring a complete coating.

8

Roll each ball in gluten-free breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere.

9

In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

10

Gently place the cheese balls in the hot oil. Fry in batches, being careful not to overcrowd, until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

11

Carefully remove the cheese balls from the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

12

Serve hot and enjoy your delicious gluten-free fried cheese balls!
