Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix together while the cheese is still warm.
In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then add them to the dough mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated. The dough should be sticky and stretchy.
Wet your hands slightly to handle the dough more easily. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Place each ball on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy as a delightful keto-friendly snack or side!
