Low Carb Oven Fried Okra Food

LOW CARB OVEN FRIED OKRA RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Wash okra, then chop into bite-sized pieces. Toss with salt and let rest for several minutes. The okra will become sticky and moist, which allows the breading to stick well without additional ingredients.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, pepper, and salt to taste. Coat okra pieces in the mixture and place on a baking sheet or casserole dish in a single layer.
• Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until okra becomes crispy, stirring occasionally.
