Ingredients
- 8 oz Dairy-free cheese block
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups Oil for frying
Directions
Step 1
Cut the dairy-free cheese block into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Step 3
Gradually whisk in the unsweetened almond milk to the dry ingredients, creating a smooth batter.
Step 4
In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with paprika and black pepper.
Step 5
Heat the oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C).
Step 6
Dip each cheese cube into the batter, allowing any excess batter to drip off.
Step 7
Roll the coated cheese cubes in the seasoned panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure they stick well.
Step 8
Carefully place the breaded cheese cubes in the hot oil, frying a few at a time, until golden brown and crispy on all sides, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Step 9
Use a slotted spoon to remove the cheese cubes from the oil, and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 10
Serve immediately for best results, with your choice of dipping sauces if desired.
