Gluten-Free, Mozzarella Stuffed Breadsticks

Servings: 8
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup coconut flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 egg
• 1 cup boiling water
• 8  6-inch long strips mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl and combine well. Add butter and eggs and mix thoroughly until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs.

Boil water and add to the mixture a bit at a time, stirring thoroughly until you have a dough.

Cut the dough into eight pieces. Take each piece and roll into a ball. Place this on a strip of parchment paper. Place another strip of parchment paper over the dough ball and roll out each one into a rectangle about 8 x 4 inches. Place a mozzarella cheese strip in the center of the rolled dough and cover it with the dough like a parcel wrapping. Make sure all the edges are sealed.

Place the breadsticks on a parchment paper lined baking tray. Bake for 20 minutes, turning over after 10 minutes.
