Baked Cheese Sticks

Summary

Cheese sticks are usually deep-fat-fried. Our version bakes in the oven limiting the fat to just 6g per serving, but they still have a crispy crust and melted cheese center.

What You Need

Baked Cheese Sticks

Instructions

  1. COMBINE KELLOGG'S CORN FLAKES cereal, garlic salt, and oregano in pie plate or shallow bowl.

  3. CUT cheese into 12 sticks approximately 2-3/4 inches long. Dip cheese in flour, then in egg mixture, then cereal mixture. Carefully repeat dipping in egg mixture and cereal mixture to double coat completely.
