Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, shredded cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Mix until the cheeses are evenly distributed.
Step 3
Add the egg, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. The dough will be sticky.
Step 4
Melt the butter in a small bowl. Use your fingers or a brush to coat your hands with a little butter to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Take small portions of the dough and shape them into small balls, about 1-inch in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each puff.
Step 6
Once all the dough is shaped, gently flatten each ball slightly with your fingers or a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Step 9
Serve warm or allow to cool completely. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to one week.
