Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Pickle Cheese Bites
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with nonstick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella, finely chopped dill pickles, garlic powder, and breadcrumbs. Mix well until fully blended.
  3. Scoop small portions of the cheese mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls or oval shapes. Place each formed bite onto the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for around 10 minutes, watching for them to turn golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  5. Remove from the oven and allow the bites to cool for a few minutes before serving.
