Deep-Fried Mac & Cheese Balls
Air-fried chickpea pasta and lean turkey morsels blended with sharp cheddar, creating a crispy golden exterior that yields to a creamy, cheesy center.
INGREDIENTS
1 oz Chickpea pasta
4 oz Ground turkey
1 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
2 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
1 large Egg white
2 tbsp Almond flour
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Avocado oil
PREPARATION
Cook chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente; drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground turkey until fully cooked, breaking it into very small crumbles.
In a bowl, combine the cooked pasta, turkey, shredded cheddar, and Greek yogurt while the pasta and meat are still warm so the cheese melts.
Season the mixture with garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper, then refrigerate for 20 minutes to firm up.
Scoop the chilled mixture into 4-5 balls, pressing firmly to ensure they hold their shape.
Dip each ball into the whisked egg white, then roll in almond flour until evenly coated.
Place the balls in an air fryer basket and lightly coat with avocado oil.
Air fry at 375°F for 10-12 minutes until the coating is golden brown and crispy.
