1
Grind the Pork Rinds
In a plastic bag or using a pillar and mortar, crush the pork rinds into a coarse breadcrumb. Measure the quantity of ground pork rinds required by the recipe.

Combine Crumb Ingredients
Transfer the grounds pork rinds into a shallow bowl along with almond flour, Italian seasonings, garlic powder. Give a quick stir to combine.

Dip the Cheese Sticks
Working one stick at a time, Dip each mozzarella cheese stick into the beaten eggs, then press into the keto bread crumb bowl.

Repeat

6
Place Sticks on Sheet
Place all of the breaded Keto Mozzarella Sticks on a baking sheet lined with oiled parchment paper.
7
Freeze for 2 Hours
