Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 large Egg
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoon Baking soda
• 4 cups Hot water
• 1 tablespoon Coarse sea salt
• 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and combined.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4

Add the melted cheese mixture and the large egg to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until a dough forms. If the dough seems sticky, you can slightly moisten your hands with water to make it easier to handle.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions.

Step 6

Roll each portion into a long rope, about 12 to 15 inches long, and form into a pretzel shape.

Step 7

In a pot, bring the hot water and baking soda to a boil. Reduce to a simmer.

Step 8

Carefully dip each pretzel in the baking soda water for about 30 seconds, then remove with a slotted spoon and place on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Sprinkle each pretzel with coarse sea salt and cheddar cheese.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
