- 1 3/4 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
- 2 ounces cream cheese, cubed
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 60 to 90 seconds until the cheese is fully melted and soft.
- Stir the melted cheese mixture until smooth. Add the egg, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough briefly on a lightly floured surface (use almond flour) until uniform.
- Roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into 10 to 12 breadstick shapes.
- Transfer the breadsticks to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- While the breadsticks bake, prepare the topping: Melt the butter in a small bowl. Stir in the minced garlic and chopped parsley.
- Remove the breadsticks from the oven. Brush the melted garlic butter mixture evenly over the hot breadsticks.
- Return the breadsticks to the oven for 2 to 3 more minutes to toast the garlic slightly.
- Cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- Serve these breadsticks immediately with a side of warm, low-sugar marinara sauce or keto ranch dressing for dipping.
- For a crispier exterior, you can bake the sticks directly on a pizza stone instead of parchment paper after the initial bake.
- If the dough is too sticky to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes before rolling.
