Ingredients
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon cream cheese
- 1 large egg, whisked
- 1 cup almond flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 4 hot dogs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese to a mixing bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Stir and microwave for 30 more seconds or until cheese has melted.
- Add the egg, almond flour, and baking powder to the cheese and mix well to form a dough.
- Separate the dough into 4 equal sized balls.
- Press each piece of dough out between two pieces of parchment paper to form a rectangle about 3 inches wide by 4 inches tall.
- Wrap the hot dogs in the dough.
- Place the wrapped hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve hot.
Notes
The dough is fairly sticky, but pressing it out between parchment paper makes it fairly easy to shape and work with.
