Ingredients
  

  • 157 g vital wheat gluten with the next 6 lines, replaces 1 bag Ketonia Bread Mix (discontinued)
  • 84 g golden flax meal
  • 38 g oat fiber
  • 35 g almond flour
  • 6 g salt
  • 1 g xanthan gum
  • 0.5 g citric acid
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 tbsp instant yeast
  • 1 tsp honey ((the yeast will eat the sugar))
  • 6 sticks mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp parmesan
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder

Equipment

  • 1 Stand mixer
  • 1 Sheet pan
  • 1 Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl fit for a stand mixer combine Ketonia mix, water, oil, yeast, and honey. Fit mixer with a paddle attachment and mix dough for 5 minutes or until well combined. Transfer dough onto a clean counter and knead into a smooth ball. Place dough in a greased bowl and let rest, covered, for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 400*.
  3. Divide dough into 18 equal pieces. Cut each mozzerella cheese stick into 3 sections. Flatten each dough ball and place one piece of cheese into the centers. Wrap the dough around the cheese and pinch the seams closed so the cheese doesn't leak. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Melt butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Mix in the minced garlic, parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and onion powder. Brush this butter over the cheese balls. Bake in oven for 15 minutes.
