Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 2 tablespoons coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 1 tablespoon granulated erythritol
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup avocado oil
• 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and granulated erythritol.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 15-second increments, stirring in between, until the cheese mixture is fully melted and smooth.

Step 3

Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough begins to form.

Step 4

Stir the melted cheese mixture into the dough and knead until the dough is smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Place a large skillet over medium heat and pour in the avocado oil.

Step 6

Once the oil is hot, use a small ice cream scoop or tablespoon to drop balls of the dough into the oil, working in batches.

Step 7

Fry the dough balls, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Adjust heat as necessary to prevent burning.

Step 8

Remove the dough balls from the oil and drain them on paper towels.

Step 9

In a small bowl, mix powdered erythritol and ground cinnamon.

Step 10

While the dough balls are still warm, sprinkle the erythritol-cinnamon mixture over them or roll them in the mixture to coat.

Step 11

Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
