Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 slices Dill pickles
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Drain the dill pickles using a paper towel to remove as much moisture as possible. This helps ensure they become crispy when fried.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the dry coating mixture.
In another small bowl, whisk together the egg and heavy cream until well combined.
Dip a pickle slice into the egg mixture, making sure it's fully coated. Allow any excess to drip off, then dredge the pickle slice in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating. Repeat this process with all pickle slices.
In a heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). To test if the oil is ready, you can drop a small piece of the coating mixture into the oil. If it sizzles and floats to the top, the oil is ready.
Carefully place the coated pickle slices into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the skillet. Fry in batches if necessary.
Fry the pickles for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once fried, transfer the pickles to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the Low Carb Crispy Fried Pickles immediately while they're hot and crispy. Optionally, serve with a low-carb dipping sauce of your choice.
