Ingredients
- 20 pieces pitted green olives
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup extra virgin olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the pitted green olives under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Step 2
In a small bowl, beat the egg until fully blended.
Step 3
In a separate shallow dish, combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Step 4
Dip each olive into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off, then roll it in the almond flour mixture, ensuring an even coating.
Step 5
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat until shimmering.
Step 6
Carefully add the coated olives to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Step 7
Fry the olives for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried olives to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 9
Allow the olives to cool slightly and serve warm as a snack or appetizer.
