Made with almond flour, these low carb cheese straws are utterly addictive.
Print Recipe
- 6 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 ½ cups Cheddar cheese grated
- 1 ½ cups Almond flour
- ¼ cup Parmesan cheese grated
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees
Place all the ingredients in a food processor. Mix until a dough is formed.
Roll out the dough in between two sheets of parchment paper to as close to a rectangle as you can get. The height should be about 1 cm.
I used a pizza cutter to cut the dough into strips. Mine were about 8 cm long and just over 1 cm wide.
Gently place the strips onto a parchment paper lined baking tin.
Bake for 10 minutes, then gently flip the cheese strips over and bake for a further 5 minutes
Remove from the oven and allow to cool before handling.
Makes 20 to 25 (quantity will vary depending upon size and thickness of straws).
The net carbs will be the total carb count minus the fibre count. Carb count excludes sugar alcohols.
