Making your own keto mozzarella sticks is a cinch and only requires 5 simple ingredients. They are only 2 net carbs each!

For best results and the most delicious crispy coating without the cheese oozing out everywhere, these keto cheese sticks should be fried. I’ve tried baking in the oven and air frying and they didn’t turn out.

How to make keto mozzarella sticks

First thing you will need to do is get your 6 mozzarella cheese sticks and cut them in half.

Now, in a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, Italian seasoning and salt.

Add the beaten eggs to a second bowl.

Coat the mozzarella stick in the egg, followed by the almond flour mixture, then egg, then almond flour again…be sure to coat them completely and not to have any of the cheese exposed.

Set the coated cheese sticks aside on a tray or plate or small baking sheet. Coat the rest of the cheese sticks.

Place the tray of cheese sticks in the freezer for 2 hours.

When you’re ready to fry the cheese sticks, heat the oil in your heavy bottom pot to 375F.

Add in 6 of the cheese sticks and cook until golden brown. This will only take a couple of minutes.

Flip them halfway through cooking for even color.

Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon and let drain on a paper towel or parchment paper. Continue cooking the remaining 6 cheese sticks.

Serve with low carb marinara sauce and get ready for the ultimate cheesy snack! Yummy!
