- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 large egg
- avocado oil or coconut oil for frying
Instructions
-
Combine the almond flour, parmesan cheeses, onion powder and garlic powder. Mix until well incorporated. Spread the mixture in a thin layer on a plate.
-
Add the heavy cream, and egg to a small bowl, and fork whisk to combine.
-
Heat about an inch of oil in a high-sided skillet or dutch oven over medium-high heat.
-
Coat the zucchini slices in the breading, dredge in the egg wash, and then coat in the breading again.
-
Gently place the breaded zucchini into the hot oil and fry until the breading is crispy on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes each side. Try not to flip the zucchini too many times or you will lose your breading.
-
Line a plate with paper towels and as you remove the zucchini from the pan, place them on the paper towels to absorb any excess grease.
Notes
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.Â
- Reheating: I recommend reheating these in the oven, a pan, or an air fryer.
