Ingredients
  

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably Italian-seasoned)

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil spray (or oil for frying)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) if baking, or heat oil in a deep pan for frying.

    In a bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.

      In a separate bowl, beat the two eggs and add garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully combined.

        Take a small amount of the cheese mixture (about 1 tablespoon) and form it into a ball.

          Dip the cheese ball into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated.

            Roll the cheese ball in the breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to ensure it adheres well.

              Repeat steps 4-6 until all the cheese mixture is used up.

                If baking, place the cheese balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and lightly spray them with olive oil. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

                  If frying, carefully place the breaded cheese balls in the hot oil, frying for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.

                    Allow the bites to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm!
