Place the veal cutlets between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper and gently pound them with a meat mallet until they are about 1/4 inch thick.
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to blend the dry ingredients.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs and heavy cream together until well combined to create the egg wash.
Dip each veal cutlet first into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then thoroughly coat it with the almond flour mixture. Press the dry mixture onto the cutlet to ensure it sticks well.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Add the breaded veal cutlets to the skillet in batches, if necessary, to avoid overcrowding. Cook each cutlet for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the cooked cutlets from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the cutlets for garnish.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the cutlets before eating.
