Zoodle Shoestring Nests, Baked or Fried
Serves/ Yield: 4-6
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook/ Assembly Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 spiralized zucchini (zoodles)
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/3 c. coconut flour
- 1/3 c. tapioca flour
- 1/3 c. arrowroot flour
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
Recipe:
To bake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large ziplock bag or sealable container mix the flours and salt and pepper.
Toss the zoodles with a beaten egg. Add the zoodles to the flour container. Shake or mix or whatever needs to happen to coat the zoodles. Smush them around a bit if need be because anything “dry” will still be dry after they are baked.
Drop into small “nests” on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 20 minutes, until brown and crispy.
To fry: Heat 3-4 heaping spoonfuls of coconut oil over medium heat. When the oil sizzles when sprinkled with drops of water it is ready. Toss the zoodles with a beaten egg. Place in a zip-top bag full of the flour mixture and shake to coat. Fry 3-4 minutes per side. Sprinkle with salt as soon as they come out of the oil.
Enjoy hot!
