Instructions
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cut each mozzarella cheese stick in half to yield 16 bite-sized pieces.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
  • Wrap a slice of bacon around each mozzarella stick, securing the ends if necessary.
  • Roll each bacon-wrapped cheese stick in the almond flour mixture.
  • Arrange the wrapped sticks on the baking sheet, leaving space between each.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
  • Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving with hot sauce.

Notes

To prevent the cheese from oozing out, overlap the bacon slightly when wrapping. Monitor baking closely for optimal crispiness.
