Why You’ll Love These Fritters

Ingredients:

• 2 medium onions, thinly sliced

• 2 large eggs

• ½ cup almond flour

• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

• 2–3 tablespoons oil for frying (coconut, avocado, or olive oil)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the onions: Peel and thinly slice the onions. Separate the rings or chop as desired.

2. Mix the batter: In a medium bowl, combine eggs, almond flour, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder. Stir until smooth.

3. Coat the onions: Toss the onions in the batter until each piece is well coated.

4. Fry to golden perfection: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion fritters in small batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until crispy and golden, about 3–4 minutes per side.

5. Drain and serve: Remove fritters from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them plain.

Tips for Perfect Fritters

• Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to get a crisp exterior.

• Use a non-stick skillet for easy flipping and minimal sticking.

• Experiment with spices like smoked paprika, cayenne, or onion powder for extra flavor.
