Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Green tomatoes
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Pork rinds, crushed
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil or lard
Instructions
Slice the green tomatoes into approximately 1/4 inch thick slices.
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, crushed pork rinds, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs and mix with the heavy cream until well combined.
Heat the coconut oil or lard in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Dip each tomato slice into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
Dredge the tomato slice in the almond flour mixture, pressing the coating onto both sides to adhere well.
Carefully place each coated tomato slice into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the fried tomato slices to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the keto crispy southern fried tomatoes warm, with your choice of dipping sauce if desired.
