Directions

• Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour and baking powder. Set aside.
• In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals until fully melted and blended, stirring between intervals.
• Once melted, transfer the cheese mixture to a food processor fitted with a dough blade. Add 2 eggs and the almond flour mixture, then pulse until a uniform dough forms.
• Wrap a pastry board with plastic wrap to prevent sticking. Lightly oil your hands and divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each portion into ropes approximately 1 inch thick.
• Using a sharp knife, slice the dough into 3/4-inch-wide pieces, yielding approximately 74 bites. Place the bites onto the prepared baking sheet.
• In a bowl, whisk the remaining egg. Brush the surface of the pretzel bites with the egg wash, then sprinkle with coarse salt.
• Bake the pretzel bites in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes, or until they turn a light golden brown. For a crispier exterior, broil on low for an additional 2 minutes, monitoring closely to prevent burning.
• Once baked to perfection, remove from the oven and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
