WW-Friendly Pizza Breadsticks Directions:
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425 °F (220 °C).
- Melt the cheese: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese and reduced-fat cream cheese. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the cheeses are fully melted and well combined.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the whole wheat almond flour and baking powder.
- Form the dough: Add the almond flour mixture and the egg to the melted cheese. Mix well until a dough forms. If the dough is too stiff, you can heat it in the microwave for an additional 10-15 seconds to make it easier to work with.
- Bake the base: Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, shaping it into a rectangle or square. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
- Add the toppings: Once baked, spread the low-sugar pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella and reduced-fat Parmesan cheese evenly over the sauce, and add the dried oregano and garlic powder.
- Bake again: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before cutting into breadsticks. Serve with additional low-sugar pizza sauce for dipping if desired.
