๐ Ingredients
You won’t need anything fancy. Just a few pantry staples:
-
1 cup shredded or grated parmesan cheese
-
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
-
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
-
2 cloves garlic, minced (or ½ tsp garlic powder)
-
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
-
1 egg
-
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little kick
๐ฉ๐ณ How to Make Them
1. Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. Mix the Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the parmesan, panko, melted butter, garlic, parsley, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything sticks together like a soft crumbly dough.
3. Form the Bites
Scoop out small spoonfuls (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into balls. Flatten slightly if you want more crispy surface area.
4. Bake
Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
5. Serve
Let cool slightly, then dig in! Serve with a side of marinara sauce, ranch, or eat them straight off the tray (no judgment).
๐ก Snack Tips
-
Make it low-carb: Skip the panko and use almond flour or crushed pork rinds.
-
Make it spicier: Add cayenne or hot sauce to the mix.
-
Make it cheesy-er: Mix in shredded mozzarella or cheddar with the parmesan.
