Mozzarella Waffles
Serve these savory little waffles as an appetizer for company or a snack. If you’re like me, you’ll love anything in waffle form.
Serves 6
1 lb. (455g) mozzarella cheese, sliced
4.4 oz. (125g) all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
3.5 oz. (100g) panko breadcrumbs
1 tsp. olive oil
2 green onions, sliced, garnish
8 tbsp. marinara sauce, for dipping
Preheat the waffle maker.
Cut the mozzarella into four equal slices, then cut each slice in half, making eight pieces total.
Place the flour, eggs and panko breadcrumbs into three separate bowls.
Dip a mozzarella slice first in the flour, then dip into the beaten egg, finally rolling it in the breadcrumbs, until coated.
Grease the waffle maker on both sides with a little olive oil and place the mozzarella onto the waffle maker. Cook the mozzarella squares in the waffle iron for about two minutes, until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the cheese is starting to bubble.
Serve the mozzarella waffles warm with a garnish of green onions and the marinara dipping sauce.
