Ingredients
Scale
Cheese Mixture
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
Dough
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Melt Cheeses: Place the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 60 to 90 seconds, stirring halfway through, until the cheeses are completely melted and smooth.
- Form Dough: Add almond flour, egg, salt, and garlic powder to the melted cheese mixture and mix thoroughly until a cohesive dough forms.
- Knead Dough: While the dough is still warm, knead it gently until it becomes smooth and pliable, helping the ingredients to combine perfectly.
- Roll Out Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out very thinly, about 1/16 inch thickness, to replicate traditional wonton wrapper thinness.
- Cut Wrappers: Remove the top parchment sheet and cut the dough into 3-inch squares to resemble wonton wrappers.
- Use or Cook: Use the wrappers immediately with your preferred filling. If a firmer texture is desired, lightly cook each wrapper in a pan over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes per side before filling.
Notes
- Keep the dough warm while working, as it hardens and becomes difficult to roll when cooled; reheat briefly if needed.
- These wrappers are best used fresh to maintain pliability.
- They may not crisp up exactly like traditional wonton wrappers but hold fillings well for keto-friendly dumplings or fried wontons.
