Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup unflavored protein powder
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup warm water
- 2 cups olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, unflavored protein powder, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Gradually add the warm water to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula until a dough forms. The dough should be firm but pliable.
Divide the dough into 2 equal portions for easier handling.
Place one dough portion between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out with a rolling pin to about 1/8 inch thick. Repeat with the second portion.
Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, slice the rolled-out dough into chip-sized pieces (about 1 to 1.5 inches wide).
In a deep skillet or a heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place a few dough pieces into the hot oil. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding, as this ensures even cooking.
Fry each batch for 1-2 minutes, or until the chips turn golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through if needed.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil, and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt on the hot chips to season, if desired.
Let the chips cool slightly before serving to ensure maximum crispiness.
