👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) or preheat your air fryer to 370°F.

2. Melt the cheese:
   In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the mozzarella cheese in 20-second intervals until fully melted and stretchy (usually about 1 minute total).

3. Mix the dough:
   Add almond flour and egg yolk to the melted cheese. Stir well until a soft dough forms. You can use your hands or a spatula. If it's sticky, chill for a few minutes.

4. Shape into fries:
   Place dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Cut into fry-like strips using a knife or pizza cutter.

5. Bake or air fry:

   • Oven: Place on a lined baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.

   • Air fryer: Cook for 8–10 minutes, flipping once.

6. Cool & serve:
   Let the fries cool slightly before serving — they crisp up more as they rest!

🍴 Serving Ideas

• Dips: Ranch, sugar-free ketchup, garlic aioli, spicy mustard

• Toppers: Sprinkle with Parmesan, herbs, or a pinch of smoked paprika

• Pairings: Bunless burgers, lettuce-wrap sandwiches, grilled chicken

🧊 Storage Tips

• Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

• Reheat in the air fryer or oven for best crispiness — avoid microwaving if possible.

• Make ahead: You can prep and freeze the raw dough strips. Bake straight from frozen — just add a couple extra minutes to the cook time.
