Ingredients
- 2 cups / 473 mL blanched almond flour
- 1 Tbsp / 15 mL baking powder
- 1 tsp / 5 mL garlic powder
- 1 tsp / 5 mL onion powder
- 3 large eggs
- 3 cups / 710 mL low-moisture mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 5 Tbsp / 25 mL cream cheese
Directions:
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F / 218 degrees C. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined. It helps to put the mixture through a flour sifter to ensure that all the baking powder gets mixed in with the rest of the ingredients.
-
Crack one of the eggs into a small bowl and whisk with a fork. This will be the egg wash for the top of the pretzels. (The other two eggs will go in the dough.)
-
In a large microwave-safe mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Remove from microwave and stir to combine. Return to microwave for 1 additional minute. Stir until well combined.
-
To the mixing bowl, add the remaining 2 eggs and the almond flour mixture. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
-
Divide the dough into 7 equal portions. Roll each portion into a long, thin piece, resembling a breadstick. Fold each one into the shape of a pretzel.
-
Brush the top of each pretzel with the egg wash.
-
Bake on the middle rack for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown.
