Keto Mozzarella Sticks Recipes

KETO MOZZARELLA STICKS

Steps:

• Cut each mozzarella string cheese stick in half. Set aside.
• Using three shallow bowls, add almond flour to one bowl. Whisk 2 eggs in the second bowl. Add ground pork rinds to the third bowl.
• Working with one halved cheese stick at a time, first dust with almond flour.
• Then dip in egg wash.
• Next dredge in ground pork rinds. Repeat with remaining cheese sticks. Do a second dip in the egg wash and dredge in ground pork rinds for each cheese stick.
• Place each cheese stick on a baking tray and freeze for 2 hours or until hardened. This will prevent the cheese from melting before the outer coating is cooked.
• Instructions for frying (preferred): Add avocado oil to a small skillet. Heat over medium heat. Once oil is heated, drop in a few mozzarella sticks and fry for about 30-45 seconds. Remove and place on a paper towel lined plate to soak up excess oil.
• Instructions for baking: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Bake for 6 minutes or until golden brown and cheese starts to melt out.
• Instructions for air fryer: Air fry at 390 degrees for 3-4 minutes.

Steps:

• Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Place coconut flour in a small bowl. Beat the egg in a second small bowl. Mix the almond flour, pork rinds, and Italian seasoning in a third bowl.
• Dredge each piece of mozzarella in coconut flour. Dip it in the egg, shaking off the excess. Roll in the almond flour mixture until well coated, then place on the lined cookie sheet. Repeat with all the mozzarella (don't let the pieces touch on the cookie sheet).
• Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for at least one hour, or until ready to bake. (Don't skip this step! It's necessary to prevent the cheese from oozing out during baking.)
• Frying instructions (recommended):Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, fry the mozzarella sticks in a single layer, 1-2 minutes per side. They are done when they are golden brown and soft inside when pressed gently.Baking instructions:Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Take the cookie sheet out of the freezer and place in the oven (preferably onto the second rack from the lowest). Bake for 4-5 minutes, until the bottom side is golden. Flip and bake for 3-4 more minutes, until golden on the other side.

KETO MOZZARELLA CHEESE STICKS

Steps:

• Cut string cheese in half crosswise.
• Beat 1 egg in small bowl. Set aside.
• Place almond flour, Parmesan cheese, coconut flour, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt in zipper sandwich bag. Shake bag to blend.
• Dip each piece of mozzarella into the beaten egg and then coat by shaking in the sandwich bag. Freeze for at least one hour.
• Heat oil in small frying pan to at least half inch high. Temperature of oil should be about 325-375°F. Higher temperatures tend to brown too quickly with cheese melting out. Air frying works too using a temperature of about 370 to 400°F for about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Cook each coated piece of mozzarella in the hot oil until browned on all sides. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut the cheese sticks in half. Then crack the egg into a small bowl and beat it until it is all mixed together. Measure out the Parmesan cheese into another bowl. Add the basil and garlic powder to the Parmesan cheese and whisk together to combine.
• Dip your cut mozzarella piece into the Parmesan mixture first, then into the egg, and then again into the Parmesan. Place the dipped mozzarella stick onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat until you've dipped all the mozzarella pieces. Put the baking sheets into the freezer for an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400. Bake the frozen mozzarella sticks for 8-10 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Serve hot with tomato sauce if desired. Enjoy!
