Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil, and spray with nonstick spray.
Cut each stick of string cheese in half widthwise, so you have 16 smaller sticks.
In a wide bowl, mix breadcrumbs, flour, and Italian seasoning.
Place cheese sticks in another wide bowl. Top with egg whites/substitute, and toss to coat.
One at a time, shake cheese sticks to remove excess egg, and evenly coat with breadcrumb mixture. Place on the baking sheet, evenly spaced.
Bake for 6 minutes.
Flip cheese sticks. Bake until golden brown on the outside and soft on the inside, about 6 more minutes.
