• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir until well combined.

Step 3

If not fully melted, microwave for an additional 20-30 seconds, then stir again.

Step 4

Add the almond flour, egg, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the melted cheese and mix until a dough forms.

Step 5

Grease a donut pan with butter.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and shape each into donut forms, placing them into the prepared donut pan.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Remove from oven and let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Enjoy immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to restore crispness.
