How to make our Cheesy Cheddar Bites

The first step is to gather all your ingredients and pre-heat your oven to 375 degrees. You also want to grab a baking tray and line it with a parchment lined baking sheet for later.

The other great thing about this recipe is that it uses very simple ingredients and are commonly for people who enjoy cooking keto recipes!

In a bowl, crack both the eggs and whisk together well. Season with salt and pepper.

Then add and mix in the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses as well as the melted butter. Once everything is combined, add in the almond flour, spices and parsley until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

The mixture should create a dough from which you can then form small bite sized balls. Separate the dough out into 8 equally sized balls in your hands and place them on the parchment lined baking sheet.

Place your cheddar cheese bites onto a greased baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden brown and crisp on the outside.

Let cool for a few minutes before serving and enjoy!

You can serve these cheesy cheddar bites with your choice of dipping sauce. The family favourite is tomato ketchup, just make sure it is the no sugar version! You can easily vary your cheesy bites and make them your own by varying the seasonings and flavours or even by changing the cheese. If you do let us know how you get on!
