Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 large egg
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 cups corn kernels
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour and almond flour.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and mix them with almond milk until well combined.
Pour the egg and almond milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until a smooth batter forms.
Fold the corn kernels into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Stir in the onion powder, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the corn batter into the skillet, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon.
Cook the nuggets for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the nuggets from the skillet and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve the corn nuggets immediately for the best texture.
