Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the okra under cold water and pat it dry with a paper towel. Trim the ends and cut each okra pod into 1/2 inch pieces.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
In another bowl, crack the egg and whisk it until the yolk and white are fully blended.
Dip each piece of okra in the egg mixture, shaking off any excess, and then coat it with the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the coated okra pieces on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the okra pieces.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, turning halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Keto Crispy Baked Okra with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish!
