Mozzarella cheese, egg yolks, a little almond flour, and seasonings make the most amazing keto pasta dish.
Ingredients
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
- pptional toppings: pesto, parmesan, marinara, Alfredo sauce
Directions
1
Melt mozzarella cheese in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments.
2
Add egg yolk, almond flour, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix until well combined. It might be easier to mix with your hands.
3
Using your hands, form the dough into long "snakes" by rolling and stretching it. You want the snakes a little less than 1/2 inch in diameter. Cut the snakes into about 1/2-inch pieces to form the gnocchi. You can lightly press them with a fork if desired but it's not necessary. Let the gnocchi rest for about 30 minutes in the fridge on a baking sheet or plate.
4
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the keto gnocchi to the skillet and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes per side, until lightly browned. Then remove from heat and top with the sauce of choice. Enjoy!
