INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Pat the pickle slices dry with a paper towel and place them in a large bowl.
- Sprinkle the pickles with coconut flour and toss gently to coat all sides.
- In a separate bowl, crack and whisk the egg.
- In another bowl, combine pork panko, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Working in batches, dip the pickle slices into the egg wash, then shake off the excess and press them into the pork panko mixture. Repeat with all the pickles.
- Arrange the pickle slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to work in batches.
- For extra crispiness, spray or brush the pickles with avocado oil.
- Air fry for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through and spraying (or brushing) with more avocado oil.
- Serve immediately with ranch dressing or your favorite dip!
