Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 6 sticks mozzarella sticks (200g), sliced in half
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1-2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, beat one large egg until the yolk and whites mix well.
  2. In a second bowl, combine almond flour, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and sea salt.
  3. Place coconut flour in a third bowl.
  4. Cut each mozzarella stick in half to create 12 shorter pieces.
  5. To coat the sticks, cover a piece of mozzarella with coconut flour, dip it in the beaten egg, and roll it in the almond flour mixture. Repeat this for all 12 sticks.
  6. Place the coated sticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze them for at least 1 hour.
Cooking
  1. Pour oil into a frying pan until it’s about half an inch deep. Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Fry the mozzarella sticks until they turn golden brown on all sides, which will only take a few minutes.
  3. Transfer the fried mozzarella sticks to a paper towel-lined plate or a wire rack to drain excess oil.

Notes

Keto Mozzarella Sticks are best served hot and fresh with marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or any low-carb dip. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. For longer storage, freeze uncooked, coated sticks.
