Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, black pepper, and sesame seeds until well combined.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs with water until well mixed, then add them to the dry ingredients. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat until melted.
Scoop a tablespoon of the dough and drop it into the hot oil. Repeat several times to fill the pan, leaving space for spreading.
Flatten each dough ball slightly with a spatula and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the emping and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side until crispy.
Transfer the fried emping to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes to further crisp them up.
Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before serving.
