Prep Time30 minsCook Time15 minsTotal Time45 mins
 8 fresh, soft mini mozzarella balls
 1 ½ cups ShaSha Co. Organic Spelt Bread Crumbs
 ½ cup club soda
 ½ cup brown rice flour
 1 egg
 oil for frying
 marinara sauce for dipping, optional
 fresh basil for garnish, optional
1

With some paper towel, gently pat and squeeze the mozzarella balls to remove any excess moisture.

2

In a bowl, whisk together the brown rice flour, egg and club soda so that they are well incorporated. This will be your batter.

3

Spread the breadcrumbs out in a large shallow pan or dish.
Roll each ball in the batter before gently rolling in breadcrumbs. If you would like a thicker layer of breadcrumbs over the mozzarella balls, dip them a second time in the batter and again roll them in the breadcrumbs.

4

Place the balls in a plate or container and put them in the freezer to set for 10-15 minutes.
While you’re waiting, heat oil in a deep pan to 1″ depth over medium heat to a temperature of approximately 375F.

5

Remove mozzarella balls from the freezer and carefully drop each ball in the oil until they are golden brown (approximately 2-3 minutes).
Remove the mozzarella balls from the oil and allow them to drain on a paper towel.

6

Serve immediately garnished with fresh basil with some marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
Enjoy!
