Keto French Fries

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   In a small bowl, whisk together almond flour, xanthan gum and salt.

   For this step

   • 100 g almond flour (1/2 cup + 1/3 cup)
   • 1 tablespoon xanthan gum
   • 1/2 teaspoon salt
2. 2

   Mix in hot water and flavor extract if using. Knead together with hands until combined.

   For this step

   • 6 tablespoons hot water
   • 20 drops mashed potato extract (optional)
3. 3

   Place dough in between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to 1/4 inch thick using a rolling pin. Slice dough into small strips. Try to get them as thin as possible, around 1/8 to 1/4 inch wide.

4. 4

   To cook now, skip freezing and choose one of the cooking methods below. To prepare ahead, lay the strips in one layer on a parchment-lined tray and freeze until solid. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag and keep frozen until ready to cook. Freezing time varies and is additional to the prep/cook estimate.

5. 5

   To a large skillet, add enough olive oil to cover the fries as they cook. Let heat over medium heat. Once the oil is heated, add a single layer of fries to the oil and let them cook until golden brown on all sides. Turn them to cook all sides. Remove from the oil and onto a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with additional salt if needed.

   For this step

   • Olive oil
6. 6

   To bake, spread french fries out in a single layer onto a baking tray. Spray the fries with olive oil. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes.

7. 7

   To air fry, spread french fries onto the air fryer basket or tray in a single layer. Spray the fries with olive oil. Air fry at 400 degrees for 6 minutes.
