This Halloween-themed snack consists of sausages wrapped in thin strips of almond flour and mozzarella dough. The wrapped sausages are baked until the exterior is golden and then decorated with small cheese rounds and olive slices to create the appearance of eyes. These handheld bites are prepared in a single baking sheet and served warm.

About This Recipe

The preparation involves creating a dough by combining melted mozzarella cheese and butter with almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and an egg. This mixture is rolled out between sheets of parchment paper and cut into long, narrow strips. Each sausage is then wrapped with the dough strips in a haphazard fashion, leaving a small opening near the top of the sausage.

The dough contains mozzarella and almond flour, and the strips are wrapped around the sausages before being placed on a parchment-lined pan. The sausages stay in the oven until the dough surfaces are browned. Once the sausages are removed from the heat, small circles of sliced cheese and pieces of black olives are placed on the exposed area of the sausage.

The recipe can be modified by using different types of protein, such as chicken or beef sausages, or by adding garlic powder to the dough mixture. The finished snack is served on a platter alongside sugar-free dipping sauces like mustard or tomato-based condiments. The components are assembled shortly before the sausages are baked, and the final decorative elements are added while the meat is still warm.
