Slice the tempeh into thin rectangles or bite-sized pieces, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a mixing bowl, combine coconut flour, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg with unsweetened almond milk until fully combined.
Heat the avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat until it reaches about 180°C (350°F).
Dip each piece of tempeh into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge it in the flour mixture until evenly coated.
Gently place the coated tempeh pieces into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fried tempeh using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce or as a side dish.
