Categories     Appetizer     Snack

Time 18m

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 pieces Mozzarella string cheese ((each cut in half))
2 tbsp Wholesome Yum Coconut Flour (*)
1 large Egg ((beaten))
1/2 cup Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour
1/2 cup Crushed pork rinds
2 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic powder ((optional))
Oil for frying ((optional))

Steps:

  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Place coconut flour in a small bowl. Beat the egg in a second small bowl. Mix the almond flour, pork rinds, and Italian seasoning in a third bowl.
  • Dredge each piece of mozzarella in coconut flour. Dip it in the egg, shaking off the excess. Roll in the almond flour mixture until well coated, then place on the lined cookie sheet. Repeat with all the mozzarella (don't let the pieces touch on the cookie sheet).
  • Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for at least one hour, or until ready to bake. (Don't skip this step! It's necessary to prevent the cheese from oozing out during baking.)
  • Frying instructions (recommended):Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, fry the mozzarella sticks in a single layer, 1-2 minutes per side. They are done when they are golden brown and soft inside when pressed gently.Baking instructions:Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Take the cookie sheet out of the freezer and place in the oven (preferably onto the second rack from the lowest). Bake for 4-5 minutes, until the bottom side is golden. Flip and bake for 3-4 more minutes, until golden on the other side.

Categories     Appetizer

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 pieces string cheese
1 large eggs (beaten)
1/4 cup almond flour
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (the powdered kind in a can)
1 tablespoon coconut flour
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt (coarse Kosher salt works best)

Steps:

  • Cut string cheese in half crosswise.
  • Beat 1 egg in small bowl. Set aside.
  • Place almond flour, Parmesan cheese, coconut flour, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt in zipper sandwich bag. Shake bag to blend.
  • Dip each piece of mozzarella into the beaten egg and then coat by shaking in the sandwich bag. Freeze for at least one hour.
  • Heat oil in small frying pan to at least half inch high. Temperature of oil should be about 325-375°F. Higher temperatures tend to brown too quickly with cheese melting out. Air frying works too using a temperature of about 370 to 400°F for about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Cook each coated piece of mozzarella in the hot oil until browned on all sides. Enjoy!

GLUTEN-FREE MOZZARELLA STICKS



Gluten-Free Mozzarella Sticks image

Baked mozzarella sticks that are crispy on the outside and gooey inside. Even though they're not fried, with this recipe, they get crunchy without the mozzarella running out. The trick is in the dredging process and ingredients. Extra egg whites and light-as-air rice flour create a lighter coating. Quadruple-dipping creates a crispy outer coating usually absent from gluten free foods. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Time 1h45m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (8 ounce) package low-moisture mozzarella cheese
½ cup superfine white rice flour
2 egg whites
1 egg
1 cup gluten-free bread crumbs
1 tablespoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
¼ cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Cut mozzarella cheese into 4x1-inch sticks.
  • Place rice flour into a shallow dish. Whisk egg whites and egg together in another shallow dish. Mix bread crumbs with oregano, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and turmeric in a third dish.
  • Dredge one mozzarella stick through the rice flour, making sure to cover all four sides and the ends. Tap off excess flour, then dip stick into the egg mixture; turn with a fork to coat completely. Drain off any excess egg. Dredge thoroughly through the rice flour and eggs again. Shake off excess, then roll into the bread crumb mixture. Dip once more into the eggs and coat with bread crumbs again, covering the ends to prevent the cheese from melting and leaking through. Place stick on a freezer-safe plate. Repeat process for each mozzarella stick.
  • Cover the plate of mozzarella sticks with plastic wrap and freeze for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set the timer for another thirty minutes.
  • Fill an oil sprayer with olive oil. Remove sticks from freezer and arrange on the prepared baking sheet; spray tops with olive oil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and close oven door; turn sticks over and spray with oil. Continue baking for 5 minutes more. Continue turning, spraying, and baking the remaining two sides, about 10 minutes more.

GLUTEN-FREE FRIED MOZZARELLA STICKS



Gluten-Free Fried Mozzarella Sticks image

Yes, Virginia, there is such thing as a gluten-free fried mozzarella stick that tastes just like the "real thing"! These are so very tasty. Many thanks to Zaar user "GlutenFreeGirl" for her input and help with this recipe. IF YOU'RE GLUTEN-FREE: Be sure to use a GF flour with a very fine consistency (no almond meal, corn meal, etc). "Recipe #201072" works perfectly. For bread crumbs, I used Ener-G's Fine Bread Crumbs - Other GF brands available include Miss Roben's, Gillian's Foods and El Peto. This is definitely a job for fine, dry breadcrumbs rather than fresh ones. If you can get your hands on gluten-free Italian flavored bread crumbs, then eliminate all of the herbs and spices that the recipe calls for. IF YOU CAN EAT GLUTEN: Just use regular breadcrumbs and regular flour (same measurements). Bon appetit!
