Ingredients

• 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
• 0.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0 Olive oil spray
• 1 whole Lemon wedges (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, mix almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly.

Step 4

Pat dry the tilapia fillets with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.

Step 5

Dip each tilapia fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 6

Next, dredge the fillet in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to ensure the coating sticks well. Shake off any excess.

Step 7

Repeat the coating process with all fillets.

Step 8

Spray the air fryer basket lightly with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.

Step 9

Place the coated fillets in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

Step 10

Spray the tops of the fillets lightly with olive oil.

Step 11

Cook the tilapia in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through. The fish should be golden brown and cooked through.

Step 12

Serve hot with optional lemon wedges for squeezing over the fish.
