Cheese Bunz

Ingredients

Prep time:5 minutes
Cook Time:10 Minutes
Yield:4 Cheese Bunz

• 1 egg (Beaten)
• 2 cups mild shredded cheese
• 2 tsp baking powder
• salt free seasoning to taste
• sesame seeds
• parchment paper
• sheet tray

Preheat oven to 350 °F (approximately 167°C)
Line a sheet tray with parchment paper and set aside

In a mixing bowl beat one large egg. Add in the 2 cups of mild shredded cheese and the salt free seasoning. (You can choose to omit the seasoning or add in what you like. I recommend not adding salt because of the sodium amount in the cheese.) Next add in 2 teaspoons of baking powder. Mix the ingredients thoroughly.

Use a 1/3 measuring cup (you can also use an ice cream scoop) to evenly distribute the cheese mixture on to the parchment lined sheet tray. (You do not need to spray the parchment with baking spray. The oil from the cheese will be enough to keep the bunz from sticking.) Use the back of the measuring cup to slightly flatten the bunz. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top (you can omit this step if you do not like sesame seeds or have allergy related issues).

Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and set a timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes check the cheese bunz. If they are brown around the edge and on the bottom you can take them out of the oven. If they’re not browned enough for you leave them in for an additional 5 minutes. Once removed from the oven let them cool before storing them in an air sealed container. You can leave them on the sheet tray or transfer them to a wire rack.
