Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese until well-combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs together with a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth and frothy.
Scoop out portions of the cheese mixture and roll them into golf ball-sized balls.
Dip each cheese ball into the egg mixture and then roll in breadcrumbs until entirely covered.
Place the coated bites onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them, and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
Let the bites cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
