Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute or until melted and easily combined, stirring halfway through.
In a separate bowl, mix together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt.
Add the melted cheese mixture and the egg to the almond flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms. It may be sticky, and using your hands to knead it slightly helps to combine it thoroughly.
Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into strips approximately 1/2 inch wide.
Twist each strip gently and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and melted butter. Brush this mixture over the top of each twist.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and crisp.
Allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving to let them firm up.
