Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz cremini or button mushrooms
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Trim the stems if necessary and slice them in half if they are large.
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and whisk in the coconut milk until well combined. This will be your egg wash.
Dip each mushroom first into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, then roll in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating adheres. Place them on a plate.
In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the mushrooms in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan.
Fry the mushrooms for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat if needed to prevent burning.
Once cooked, remove the mushrooms from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately for the best crispiness. These crispy fried mushrooms are perfect as a side dish or a savory snack.
