Keto Mozzarella Sticks

Keto Mozarella Sticks

One of our favorite quick and easy low carb snacks to make! They’re cheesy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Yum!!!

Ingredients

• 6 Mozzarella Sticks

• 1/2 cup grated dry Parmesan cheese

• 1 1/2 cups fried pork rinds

• 1 tsp Italian seasoning blend

• 1 egg

• 2 tsp water

Preparation

• Cut Mozzarella sticks in half cross-wise and set aside

• Place egg and water in a small shallow dish or pan. Whisk to mix.

• Crush pork rinds with a rolling pin or crush in a blender. Should make about 1/2 cup pork rind crumbs.

• Place Parmesan, crushed pork rinds and Italian seasoning in a shallow baking pan

• Dip Mozzarella sticks, one at a time, first in egg wash, then crumbs, then repeat both egg wash and crumbs for a second coating.

• Set mozzarella on dish or pan that will fit in the freezer.

• Freeze for two hours

After two hours: heat oven to 500 degrees.

Working quickly cover a baking pan in parchment or grease it.

Place frozen mozzarella sticks directly from the freezer onto the pan.

Bake for 6-8 minutes, just till the coating is brown and cheese is warm and soft.

Serve immediately with warm marinara sauce, if desired.

I would bet you can do these in the air fryer on 400 as well! (Not sure the time frame - you would have to play around with it!)

Enjoy!
