Ingredients
  

  • 0.75 cup (85 g / 3 oz) almond flour
  • 2 cups (227 g / 8 oz) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 slices (113 g / 4 oz) cooked bacon, chopped
  • 0.25 cup (40 g / 1.41 oz) crumbled feta cheese
  • 0.25 cup (28 g / 0.99 oz) green onions, chopped
  • 3 tbsp (45 g / 1.59 oz) sriracha mayo
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Gentle Heat is Key: When melting the mozzarella and almond flour, keep the heat on medium. If it gets too hot, the oils will separate, resulting in a greasy dough.
  • The Parchment Trick: This fathead dough is sticky! Always roll it between two sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking without adding extra flour.
  • Pre-Crisp Your Bacon: The bake time is short, so use fully cooked, crispy bacon. This ensures a perfect crunch and prevents the bites from becoming soggy.

Method
 

  1. Cooking Directions
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F / 177°C.
  3. In a nonstick pan over medium heat, combine the almond flour and mozzarella.
  4. Stir constantly for about 5 minutes until a smooth, cohesive dough forms.
  5. Place the warm dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to about 1/8-inch thickness.
  6. Use a 2-inch circular cookie cutter to cut out 24 rounds. Reroll any scraps to get the full 24.
  7. Press the dough circles into a standard muffin tin or arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Top each circle evenly with the chopped bacon, crumbled feta, and green onions.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crisp.
  10. Let the bites cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan.
  11. Drizzle with sriracha mayo and serve immediately.
  12. Chill for Clean Cuts: If the dough is too soft to handle, chill the rolled-out sheet in the fridge for 5-10 minutes. This makes cutting and transferring the circles a breeze.
