Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit)
• 2 large Eggs
• 3 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
• 1 cup Avocado oil or lard (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and granulated sweetener. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a uniform batter forms.

Step 4

Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onions, mixing until evenly incorporated.

Step 5

Heat the avocado oil or lard in a deep skillet or saucepan over medium heat. The oil should reach a temperature of about 350°F (175°C) for perfect frying.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, carefully drop rounded mounds of batter into the hot oil, frying in small batches. Do not overcrowd the pan.

Step 7

Fry the hush puppies for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Using a slotted spoon, remove the hush puppies from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 9

Repeat the frying process with the remaining batter until all hush puppies are cooked.

Step 10

Serve warm as a delicious keto-friendly side dish or snack. Enjoy!
