Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 0.25 cup baking soda
- 1 cup boiling water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour and baking powder, mix well and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for about 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and smooth. Stir the mixture every 30 seconds to prevent burning.
Add the melted cheese mixture to the almond flour and baking powder. Add the egg, and mix everything until a dough forms. Knead with your hands if necessary to ensure it is well combined.
Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a long rope, roughly ½-inch in diameter.
Cut each rope into 1-inch bites and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine the baking soda with the boiling water, stirring until dissolved.
Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each pretzel bite with the baking soda solution. This will help give them a nice golden-brown exterior.
Bake the pretzel bites in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and brush them lightly with melted butter. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt to taste.
Allow the pretzel bites to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them fresh as a snack or appetizer.
