- 2 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt and some fresh cracked black pepper
Preparation Steps
Gather the tools and ingredients.
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Shred the cheese.
Mix ingredients: Add the eggs to a large bowl and beat well. Combine the shredded mozzarella, beaten egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
Shape it up: Transfer the keto dough mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a rectangle about ¼-inch thick.
Cooking Instructions
Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the center is fully cooked.
Remove from oven, cool for a few minutes, then slice into sticks using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
Serve warm with optional marinara sauce.
- Storage: Store any leftover breadsticks in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: To reheat, place them in a preheated 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes or until warmed through. Avoid the microwave, as it can make them soggy.
- Less Spice, More Options: If you plan to pair these with a flavored dip or spread, please dial back on the garlic and herbs. The cheese and egg base makes a versatile canvas for various toppings—like olive tapenade or even some herbed cream cheese!
- Overcooking: A thinner layer of cheese is likely to cook much faster and may be too crispy or simply burnt. It's a good idea to aim for a thickness of about 1/4 inch for the balance between crispy and chewy, which makes these keto breadsticks so delicious.
