Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Pat dry chicken tenders and season with salt and pepper.
Whisk eggs and hot sauce in a large bowl.
Add cassava flour and seasonings in another large bowl and mix together.
One at a time, dredge the chicken tenders first in the egg mixture and then in the cassava flour mix. Place on parchment paper lined baking sheet and spray each one with a little cooking spray, which will help make them brown and crispy.
Place the tray on top shelf and bake for 8-10 min. Turn broiler on high and cook tenders for an additional 3 min.
Flip tenders and cook on 425 degrees for 2-4 min, flip and cook on broil for an additional 3 min. Remove from oven and let cool. If you like it saucy, toss in buffalo sauce, dip in ranch and enjoy!
