Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 sticks Cheese sticks (mozzarella or cheddar)
- 0.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups Pork rinds, crushed
- 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, crushed pork rinds, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until they are smooth.
Take each cheese stick and dip it first into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated.
Next, roll the egg-coated cheese stick in the almond flour mixture, pressing the mixture onto the cheese to ensure it sticks well.
Place the coated cheese sticks on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are spaced apart.
Drizzle or lightly spray the coated cheese sticks with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and crispy.
Allow to cool slightly before serving, as the cheese will be hot and gooey.
