Instructions:
- Prep the Pickles:
- Drain the pickles from the jar and pat them dry using paper towels. Ensure they are as dry as possible to help the coating stick.
- Prepare the Coating:
- In a shallow bowl, mix almond flour, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. This will be your dry mixture.
- In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until well combined. This will be your wet mixture.
- Coat the Pickles:
- Dip each pickle slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s well-coated.
- Then, dredge the pickle slice in the almond flour mixture, making sure it’s evenly coated. Press gently to adhere the coating to the pickle.
- Set Up for Frying:
- Heat avocado oil or coconut oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Make sure there’s enough oil to submerge the pickle slices.
- Fry the Pickles:
- Once the oil is hot (around 350°F or 175°C), carefully place the coated pickle slices into the oil, ensuring they’re not overcrowded.
- Fry the pickles for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Use tongs or a slotted spoon to transfer the fried pickles to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve:
- Once all the pickles are fried and drained, serve them hot with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce such as ranch dressing or aioli.
- Enjoy your crispy and delicious keto fried pickles as a snack or appetizer
