Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and microwave for an additional 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour and baking powder together.
Add the dry ingredients to the melted cheese. Crack the egg into the mixture and stir until a dough forms. You may need to knead it with your hands to make it fully combined.
Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a small ball and shape into a nugget.
Arrange the nuggets on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to leave some space between each nugget to allow for expansion.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small bowl. Brush the tops of the nuggets with melted butter and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the nuggets are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your low carb soft pretzel nuggets as a delicious snack or appetizer.
