Ingredients

Cheeses

  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Binding Agents

  • 1 large egg

Seasonings

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to fully heat before baking the bites.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the freshly grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, large egg, and onion powder. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is uniform and well blended.
  3. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the sheet to form a single, flat layer.
  4. Bake the Mixture: Place the prepared baking sheet in the center of the preheated oven. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the surface is golden and the edges are bubbly.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cheese layer cool slightly so it can set properly. Once cooled, cut into bite-sized pieces and serve.

Notes

  • Ensure the oven is fully preheated before baking for even cooking.
  • Use freshly grated cheese for the best melting and flavor.
  • Allow bites to cool so they firm up and are easier to handle.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat gently.
  • Optional: Add herbs like parsley or basil for extra flavor.
