Goat Cheese Balls

Goat Cheese Balls

I have heard about goat cheese balls and I have been dying to try them only I don’t know if any restaurants in my area that serve them. In order to appease that craving, we had to make these goat cheese balls ourselves.

First, they took me a few days to master but I made them. They are not necessarily easy to make so if you want easy, you should move on. Keep in mind that it is important that the breading is lighter. If you want a heavier breading then you should dip more in egg and then the bread crumbs. Follow this cooking tip – when browning, I kept the pan moving and only did a few at a time and let them roll around and brown.

Enjoy!

Goat Cheese Balls

Ingredients:

  • 4 oz creamy goat cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 C. almond flour
  • 1/2 C. bread crumbs
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
  • Olive oil

Sauce Ingredients:

  • 1/4 mango
  • 1/4 papaya
  • 1/8 C. pineapple juice
  • salt & pepper to taste


Goat Cheese Balls

Directions:

  1. Combine the goat cheese, almond flour, bread crumbs and dried thyme.
  2. Place the mixture in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  3. Remove and use a small 2″ cookie scoop to roll the cheese mixture into balls.
  4. Place each cheese ball on a plate or small cookie sheet.
  5. Once all the cheese is rolled into balls, place them in the fridge or freezer while heating the oil and making the tropical sauce.
  6. Place the mango, papaya and pineapple juice in a food processor and blend.
  7. Pour into a small dish and set aside.
  8. Heat the oil on medium/high heat. Remove the cheese balls from the fridge/freezer and cook 2-3 at a time. Continually turning them. I found it was easier to lift the pan up and let them roll around. Cook a minute and roll around again.
  9. Remove from the pan and serve with the tropical sauce.
