Ingredients

  • 1 cup pork-panko (ground-up pork-rinds)
  • 2 cups dill pickle slices
  • 1 tbsp coconut-flour
  • ¼ tsp ground-black-pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ tsp garlic-powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • sea-salt, to taste
  • ranch dressing for dipping (Optional)
  • avocado-oil to spray or brush (Optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400° F. Then pat dry the pickle pieces using a paper-towel and put in a large-bowl.
  • Sprinkle the pickles with coconut-flour & toss gently so all sides are coated.
  • In another bowl, then whisk & crack the egg and in a different bowl, combine together pork-panko, paprika, garlic-powder, pepper and salt.
  • Working in batches, dredge the pickle-slices in the egg-wash. Then shake off the excess and press to the pork-panko mix. Transfer to a plate & repeat with the remaining part of the pickle-pieces.
  • Organize the dill pickle slices in one layer in the air-fryer. You might want to operate in batches based on the size of your air fryer.
  • For additional crispy pickles, brush or spray the pickles with avocado- oil.
  • Air fry about 10minutes, turning then spraying (or brunshing) with avocado-oil halfway through. Serve immediately with ranch, or even your favourite dip.

Notes

The pickles I used were lots salty in their so that I did not include any extra salt. I'd taste the pickles first before to establish if you would like to add more salt or not.
