Air Fryer Fried Pickles (Edit recipe)

Making fried pickles in the air fryer is so much easier than the traditional deep fried pickles and the cleanup is a breeze as well. These air fried pickles are made low carb by using ground up pork rinds rather than breadcrumbs, but the texture is still so crunchy and crispy. I love that they are way healthier than the original version and I honestly couldn’t stop eating these!

Ingredients

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F.
  2. Pat dry the pickle slices with a kitchen or paper towel and place in a large bowl.
  3. Sprinkle the pickles with coconut flour and toss gently so all sides are coated.
  4. In a separate bowl, crack and whisk the egg.
  5. In another bowl, mix together pork panko, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  6. Working in batches, dredge the pickle slices in the egg wash.
  7. Shake off the excess and press into the pork panko mixture. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the rest of the pickle slices.
  8. Arrange the dill pickle slices in a single layer in the air fryer. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  9. For extra crispy pickles, spray or brush the pickles with avocado oil.
  10. Air fry for 10 minutes, flipping then spraying (or brushing) with avocado oil again halfway through.
  11. Serve immediately with ranch dressing, or your favorite dip!

Notes

The pickles that I used were plenty salty on their own so I didn’t add any more salt. I would taste the pickles first before to determine if you want to add more salt or not. Fried pickles will last up to 3 days in the refrigerator stored in an airtight container. The best way to reheat these keto fried pickles is to place them back in the air fryer for about 5 minutes at 400 degrees F until they crisp up again.
