Mozzarella Sticks - Low Carb Way Of Life

Ingredients:

1 large egg
1/4 cup almond flour
1/8 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoons coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
6 string cheese
Oil for frying

Directions:

Slice the string cheese in half to make 12 pieces.

Add the egg to a small bowl along with 1 tablespoon of water. Whisk well to combine.

Add the almond flour, Parmesan, coconut flour, and garlic salt to a second bowl and stir to combine.

Dip each string cheese into the egg to coat and then the almond flour mixture. Make sure to fully coat the string cheese in the breading.

Place breaded string cheese on a parchment lined baking sheet and place in the freezer for at least 1 hour.

Heat 1-2 inches of oil in a deep skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees.

Carefully place the cheese sticks into the oil, making sure they do not touch and you do not overcrowd the pan.

Fry for 1-2 minutes per side or until golden brown.

Remove cheese sticks to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

Serve with marinara or ranch dressing for dipping.
