Rinse the haddock fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside on a clean plate.
In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and cayenne pepper. Whisk until well mixed.
Pour the gluten-free beer into the dry mixture, followed by the egg and lemon juice. Whisk together until the batter is smooth and slightly thick. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
Preheat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 365Β°F (185Β°C).
Lightly dust the haddock fillets with the gluten-free flour, ensuring they are evenly coated. This helps the batter adhere better to the fish.
Dip each fillet into the beer batter, allowing any excess to drip off, and carefully lower into the hot oil.
Fry the haddock in small batches, making sure not to overcrowd the fryer, for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fillets from the oil using a slotted spoon or tongs, and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the gluten-free beer battered haddock immediately, with tartar sauce or lemon wedges on the side for extra flavor.
