Keto Pigs in a Blanket

I'm starting to explore more keto snack food! I find myself missing the small party foods like Pigs in a Blanket! I often wondered how I could make these delicious snacks Keto friendly! Fair warning, they are EXTREMELY light and addicting! I hope you enjoy these just as much as I do.

TIP: Wear Gloves while making the crust! You'll thank me later!

1 large Egg

1/4 tsp Baking powder

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp Pink Salt

3. Add almond flour and egg to mozzarella & combine well.

4. Add baking powder, garlic and salt. Combine well.

8. Place each hot dog piece into the dough and wrap like a blanket.

9. (OPTIONAL) Sprinkle with sesame seeds (press down so they stick to dough).
