Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup cassava flour
- 1 cup tapioca starch
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 egg
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine cassava flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together coconut milk, egg, and apple cider vinegar until thoroughly combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth, thick dough forms. The dough should be easy to shape and not too sticky.
Heat the coconut oil in a large pan or skillet over medium heat until it's shimmering.
While the oil is heating, divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a stick shape, about 6 inches in length.
Gently place the dough sticks into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.
Fry the dough sticks for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the dough sticks from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Let the dough sticks cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm!
