Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cheese Mixture:

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded cheese and cream cheese.
2. Microwave on high for 1 1/2 minutes, or until the mixture is melted and smooth. Stir well to ensure it’s fully combined.

2. Mix the Dough:

1. Allow the cheese mixture to cool slightly, then beat in the egg until well incorporated.
2. Add the almond flour and baking powder to the mixture. Stir until a dough forms. The dough should be somewhat sticky but manageable.

3. Shape the Pretzel Bites:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, a baking mat, or foil.
3. Take a tablespoon of the dough and roll it into a log shape. Cut each log into bite-sized pieces (about 6 pieces per log). Place the pieces onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
4. If desired, sprinkle the tops of the pretzel bites with coarse salt or pink salt for added flavor and a traditional pretzel touch.

4. Bake:

1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until the pretzel bites are golden brown. If you prefer them a bit more crispy, you can bake them for an additional 2-3 minutes.

5. Serve:

1. Allow the pretzel bites to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as mustard, cheese dip, or a low-carb ranch dressing.

Additional Notes:

• This recipe makes about 30 pretzel bites, or you can shape the dough into 5 full-size pretzels if you prefer.
• These pretzel bites are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.

Enjoy these savory, cheesy keto pretzel bites as a perfect snack or appetizer that fits perfectly into your low-carb lifestyle!
