Ingredients
– 1 cup cottage cheese (drained)
– 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
– 1/4 cup almond flour
– 1/2 tsp garlic powder
– 1/2 tsp paprika
– 1 egg (beaten)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Olive oil spray (for greasing)
Directions
Preheat your oven to a toasty 400°F (200°C), and get your baking sheet ready with a nice layer of parchment paper. In a cozy mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese with parmesan, almond flour, garlic powder, and paprika. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, and give it a loving mix. Form this delightful mixture into small balls or patties—whatever shape gives you joy! Take each little creation and give it a good dip in the beaten egg, making sure they’re nicely coated. Lay them out on your prepared baking sheet. A gentle spray of olive oil will help them get a glorious golden hue as they bake. Pop them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, just until they’re beautifully crispy on the outside. Then, sit back and savor this cheesy, crunchy treat, perfect for snacking or as a delightful appetizer!
