Duration:

Prep Time:  20 minutes
Cook Time:10 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 12

Ingredients:

  • 12 pieces mozzarella cheese strings
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 2 Tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes optional, if you want a little heat

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F or about 200 C. Line a baking cheese with parchment paper (better than foil as cheese can stick to it).

  2. Beat 2 eggs in a small bowl and set aside

  3. Place the almond flour, coconut flour, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, garlic powder and red pepper flakes if using, in a zipper lock sandwich bag. Shake bag until blended.

  4. Dip each mozzarella cheese string/stick into the beaten egg and then put into the sandwich bag. Coat the cheese string by shaking the bag and place on a plate. Freeze for 30 to 60 minutes.

  5. If baking, place the mozzarella sticks on the baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown.

  6. If frying, heat a small amount of oil (olive preferably) in a small frying pan to about 1/4 an inch deep. Heat oil over a medium heat and pan-fry until golden brown. There’s no need to try and ‘deep fry’ them. Brown on all sides

  7. Enjoy as is or use a low sugar marinara sauce
