- All the ingredients will be combined with eggs to create a structure for this golden bread. They also provide a rich texture and a protein content. You can substitute flax eggs, chia eggs, or psyllium husk gel.
MOZZARELLA CHEESE:
- Make use of the mozzarella cheese to achieve a smooth and pliable texture. Alternatively, we may use cheddar, provolone, or Monterey Jack cheese.
