Instructions:

1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
2. Drain the pickle chips and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
3. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream to make an egg wash.
4. In another shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
5. Dip each pickle chip into the egg wash, shaking off any excess, then coat it in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
6. Place the coated pickle chips in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they’re not touching each other.
7. Lightly spray the pickle chips with cooking spray or olive oil spray to help them crisp up.
8. Air fry the pickles at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
9. While the pickles are frying, prepare the ranch dip. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, chopped dill, chopped parsley, minced garlic, onion powder, dried chives, salt, and pepper. If desired, add lemon juice for extra tang.
10. Once the pickles are done, remove them from the air fryer and serve immediately with the ranch dip on the side
