Ingredients

• 8 sticks Mozzarella string cheese
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Water
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Coconut oil or avocado oil

Directions

Step 1

Cut each mozzarella string cheese stick in half to create 16 shorter sticks.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the dry coating mixture.

Step 3

In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs with the tablespoon of water until combined.

Step 4

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 5

Dip each mozzarella stick half into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then roll it in the almond flour mixture until fully coated.

Step 6

Place the coated mozzarella sticks on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for at least 1 hour. This helps the coating adhere during frying.

Step 7

Once the mozzarella sticks are frozen, heat the coconut oil or avocado oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the temperature.

Step 8

Carefully lower a few mozzarella sticks into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 1-2 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Repeat with the remaining mozzarella sticks.

Step 11

Serve immediately with your favorite low-carb marinara sauce or dipping sauce.
