Step 1

Melt mozzarella cheese in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments.

Step 2

Add egg yolk, almond flour, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix until well combined. It might be easier to mix with your hands.

Step 3

Using your hands, form the dough into long "snakes" by rolling and stretching it. You want the snakes a little less than 1/2 inch in diameter. Cut the snakes into about 1/2-inch pieces to form the gnocchi. You can lightly press them with a fork if desired but it's not necessary. Let the gnocchi rest for about 30 minutes in the fridge on a baking sheet or plate.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the keto gnocchi to the skillet and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes per side, until lightly browned. Then remove from heat and top with the sauce of choice. Enjoy!
