Ingredients
For the Breadstick Dough:
- 1 ½ cups part-skim, low-moisture shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 oz cream cheese
- ½ cup almond flour
- 3 tbsp coconut flour
- 1 large egg
For the Toppings:
- ½ cup part-skim, low-moisture shredded mozzarella cheese
- ⅓ cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp finely chopped parsley
Instructions
1. Prepare the Cheese Dough
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add mozzarella and cream cheese. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until fully melted (about 1-1½ minutes).
- Transfer the melted cheese to a food processor with the dough blade attachment.
- Add almond flour, coconut flour, and egg. Pulse on high speed until a uniform dough forms. (The dough will be sticky, which is normal.)
2. Shape & Roll the Dough
- Let the dough cool slightly to make it easier to work with.
- Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper until it is about ¼ inch thick.
- Peel off the top layer of parchment paper and transfer the dough (with the bottom parchment) onto a baking sheet.
3. Add Cheese & Bake
- Sprinkle ¼ cup of mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving a ½-inch perimeter around the edges.
- Bake for 5-6 minutes, or until the edges are golden and slightly puffed.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
- Bake for another 3-5 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
