Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 2 large eggs
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
Step 3
In a microwave-safe bowl, add shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
Step 4
Add the melted cheese mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix together while the cheese is still warm.
Step 5
In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then add them to the dough mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated. The dough should be sticky and stretchy.
Step 6
Wet your hands slightly to handle the dough more easily. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Step 7
Place each ball on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
Step 9
Allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy as a delightful keto-friendly snack or side!
