Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- 2 cups warm water
- 1 tablespoon coarse salt
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, mix the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1-2 minutes or until melted. Stir until smooth.
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour and baking powder. Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients and mix well until a dough forms.
Add the egg to the dough and mix until fully integrated. Knead with your hands if necessary to ensure a smooth, homogeneous dough.
Divide the dough into small portions and roll each into a small ball, approximately 1 inch in diameter. You should get around 24 balls.
In a shallow bowl, dissolve the baking soda in warm water. Dip each dough ball in the baking soda solution and set aside on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the coarse salt over each pretzel bite.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and immediately brush with melted butter. Serve warm.
