Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Crushed pork rinds
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
In a shallow bowl, mix together the almond flour, crushed pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another bowl, lightly beat the eggs.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. This helps the coating adhere better.
Dip each shrimp into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly in the almond flour mixture. Press the coating onto the shrimp to ensure it sticks well.
Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Arrange the coated shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on your air fryer size, you may need to cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Lightly spray the tops of the shrimp with more cooking spray.
Air fry the shrimp for 5 minutes, then carefully flip them over and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the shrimp from the air fryer and serve immediately, enjoying them with a keto-friendly dipping sauce if desired.
