Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Coating: Set up three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, beat egg. In the second, mix almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and sea salt. Place coconut flour in the third bowl.
- Coat the Cheese Sticks: Cut mozzarella sticks in half to create 12 portions. Roll each piece in coconut flour, dip in beaten egg, then coat with almond flour mixture. Place coated sticks on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Freeze the Coated Sticks: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
- Fry the Mozzarella Sticks: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat to 350°F. Fry cheese sticks for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Monitor doneness with a slotted spoon.
- Drain Excess Oil: Remove sticks from the pan using a slotted spoon and transfer to a towel-lined plate. Allow excess oil to drain.
- Serve & Enjoy: Serve hot, optionally with keto-friendly marinara sauce for dipping.
