List of Ingredients
Baked Juustoleipa (Cheese) Sticks
* 1/2 cup Japanese style bread crumbs (Panko)
* 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
* 1 egg
* 12 ounces Juustoleipa* or Mozzarella string cheese
* 1/2 cup prepared marinara or Buffalo sauce, optionalRecipe
Position rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or foil which has been sprayed with non-stick spray.
Place bread crumbs and Italian seasoning in non-stick skillet; over medium heat and stirring, cook until crumbs are lightly browned. Remove from heat.
Whisk egg until foamy, place in shallow bowl.
Slice Juustoleipa cheese into sticks (if using cheese sticks, remove from wrapper). Dip cheese sticks in egg then roll in toasted crumbs to coat. Place on prepared baking sheet. Bake 5-6 minutes. Juustoleipa will keep its shape well during baking. Mozzarella cheese may melt slightly and lose shape, simply press it back into place. Serve with marinara or buffalo dipping sauce.
