INGREDIENT NOTES:

ALMOND FLOUR:

• The keto breading is made using almond flour as its foundation. It offers structure to the coating and helps it stick. Don’t use coconut flour because of its dry texture, and it is a good absorbent.

EGG:

• It helps to combine every component. You can utilize the second egg to provide thickness to larger cheese cubes.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

• The normal cheese pull is produced when the mozzarella cheese melts perfectly. For a stronger flavor, use cheddar or pepper jack cheese; however, harder cheeses may leak more while baking.

PARMESAN CHEESE:

• This cheese improves flavor and gives a crispy texture. You can use freshly grated Parmesan that melts better than shelf-stable alternatives.

CRUSHED PORK RINDS:

• Crushed pig rinds add crunch and resemble regular breadcrumbs. Use freshly crushed rinds to provide a uniform covering and superior texture.

FAQs:

Are these kid-friendly or not?

Yes, children can eat this dish because it is tender and highly popular.

Will I cook this in an air fryer instead of the oven?

You can lightly fry them in a small amount of oil, which is a good method, but baking also keeps them lighter.

Why does cheese leak out so much?

Leaks might occur due to improper coating or unequal sealing. It is helpful to double the bread.
