Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces haddock fillets
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 4 for serving lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the haddock fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
In a shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Place the tapioca flour in a separate shallow dish.
Beat the eggs in a third shallow dish.
Dredge each haddock fillet in the tapioca flour, shaking off any excess.
Dip the floured fillets in the beaten eggs, allowing any excess egg to drip off.
Finally, coat the fillets entirely in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating adheres well.
In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded haddock fillets to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the browned fillets to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, or until the fish is fully cooked and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for drizzling.
