Yield: 20–24 cheese bombs
Ingredients
1 cup finely shredded sharp cheddar cheese
¾ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup pitted green olives, drained and thoroughly patted dry
Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
Prepare the Olives: Pat the olives completely dry with paper towels to help the cheese adhere properly.
Mix the Cheese: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cheddar and grated Parmesan until evenly mixed.
Wrap the Olives: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture and flatten it in your hand. Place an olive in the center and carefully wrap the cheese around it, sealing completely. Roll gently into a smooth ball.
Bake: Arrange the cheese-covered olives on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Cook: Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the outside is golden brown and crispy.
Cool & Serve: Let the cheese bombs cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm for the best flavor and texture.
Tips
Try stuffed green olives with garlic, jalapeños, or pimentos for extra flavor.
Serve with ranch dressing, spicy mayo, or marinara for dipping.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispiness.
Crispy, cheesy, and incredibly addictive, these Low-Carb Cheese Olive Bombs are the perfect bite-sized snack for keto lovers and anyone craving a quick, satisfying appetizer!
