Calories: 282kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon salted butter, melted
- 3 clove fresh garlic, finely minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh or dried parsley
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Add mozzarella cheese and cream cheese to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in bursts of 30 seconds, stirring between bursts. You want to heat until the cheese has fully melted.
- Allow the cheese to cool for a few minutes, so that it does not cook the egg when you add it.
- Add in almond flour, egg, garlic powder and salt. Knead dough until ingredients are well-combined.
- Split dough into 8 evenly-sized balls. Roll into logs, approximately 8 inches long. Tie into a knot. Place onto a baking sheet and bake until golden brown.
- While the knots are cooking, add butter and garlic to a pan over medium heat. Cook garlic for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant and softened. Remove from heat and add in parsley and Parmesan cheese.
- Once cooked, remove from oven and coat in melted butter. Sprinkle with the garlic Parmesan coating.
