Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.

Cut each mozzarella stick in half, resulting in 16 pieces.

In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Wrap each mozzarella stick with a slice of bacon, overlapping slightly.

Roll the bacon-wrapped sticks in the almond flour mixture to coat thoroughly.

Arrange the wrapped sticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.

Let them cool for a few minutes before serving with hot sauce on the side.

Enjoy these warm and crispy sticks!
