Ingredients
- 4 slices thick-cut ham slices
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large egg
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.33 cup olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika
Directions
Step 1
Pat the ham slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to combine.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with the heavy cream until well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 4
Dip each ham slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it is completely coated, then dredge it in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Step 5
Pour the olive oil into a large skillet set over medium-high heat.
Step 6
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the ham slices into the skillet. Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Use a spatula to carefully remove the ham slices from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve warm, and enjoy your Keto Crispy Fried Ham!
