How to Make Parmesan Mozzarella Bites
1. Prepare the Cheese
Mix the mozzarella and parmesan cheese together and form into small bite-sized balls. Freeze for about 20–30 minutes to help them hold their shape.
2. Set Up Breading Station
Prepare three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
3. Coat the Bites
Roll each cheese ball in flour, dip in egg, then coat in breadcrumbs. Repeat for a thicker crust if desired.
4. Fry
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the bites for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve
Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with marinara sauce.
