Crispy Mushroom Bites with Creamy Dip
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup frying oil (avocado or olive oil recommended)
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing for serving
Instructions
- Mix the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper in a shallow dish until evenly combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg until frothy.
- Dip each mushroom slice into the egg, ensuring it’s fully coated, then transfer it to the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly for an even coating.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
- Carefully place the breaded mushrooms in the skillet in a single layer, ensuring they have enough space to fry properly.
- Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they achieve a golden-brown, crispy texture.
- Transfer the mushrooms to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve warm, accompanied by a side of ranch dressing for dipping.
Notes
- For an added kick, mix in a teaspoon of Italian herbs into the almond flour blend.
- Experiment with various mushroom types like portobello or shiitake for unique flavors and textures.
