Cheesy Garlic Bread Bites

Ingredients:

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup almond flour (optional, for added crispiness)
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning (or mixed dried herbs)
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 tsp salt
• Optional: Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the cheese mixture:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, eggs, almond flour (if using), Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until a sticky dough forms.

1. Shape the mixture:

• Spread the cheese mixture evenly onto the parchment-lined baking tray. Use a spatula to flatten it into a thin, even layer.

1. Bake the base:

• Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 15–18 minutes or until the edges start turning golden brown.

1. Slice into squares:

• Remove the tray from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the baked cheese mixture into bite-sized squares.

1. Final bake:

• Return the tray to the oven and bake for another 5–7 minutes to crisp up the edges.

1. Serve:

• Let the bites cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley for added flavor if desired.

Enjoy your cheesy garlic bread bites as a snack, appetizer, or side dish! Perfect for dipping in marinara or ranch sauce.
