Ingredients
-
1 cup (112g) Mozzarella Cheese, grated
-
½ cup (50g) Parmesan Cheese, grated
-
½ cup (56g) coconut flour
-
2 eggs, beaten
-
1 cup (150g) Feta cheese, crumbled
-
3 tablespoons cranberry chia jam ( See Note )
-
¼ cup (56g) butter- unsalted, melted
-
½ teaspoon baking powder
-
2 tablespoons chopped chives (decoration)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 200C/400 degrees.
-
In a bowl, mix the Mozzarella and Parmesan cheese together.
-
Add the eggs and butter and mix thoroughly.
-
Add the coconut flour and baking powder and mix until you almost have a dough like texture.
-
Add the Feta cheese and cranberry chia jam, gently mixing this throughout the dough.
-
Using your hands (clean!) make 15 even shaped balls for the tree shape. Anything left over can be used as the trunk if need be.
-
Place the balls on a parchment covered baking tin in the shape of a Christmas Tree. You could try a festive wreath too!
-
Bake for 30-35 until firm and golden.
-
Eat and enjoy!
Note : If you don’t want to make the cranberry chia jam, you could replace this with cooked cranberries. Just make sure that the cranberries are still quite firm as you don’t want them too mushy.
