Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 24 oz jar of pickle spears quartered

Wet ingredients:

  • cup plant milk
  • ½ cup flour of choice
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp turmeric

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt

Herb Dip Ingredients

  • ½ cup soaked cashews
  • ½ cup full fat coconut milk
  • handful of parsley/dill
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp salt
  • juice of 1 lemon

Instructions
 

  • Slice the pickles into quarters. Once in half width-wise & then once again lengthwise(they should be somewhat thin slices). Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any extra juice.
  • Mix together the wet ingredients in one bowl, & the dry ingredients in another.
  • Using separate hands for the wet & dry mixture, coat each pickle in the wet mixture & then transfer it to the dry mixture to coat evenly in bread crumbs.
  • Place the pickles in an air fryer in a single layer and cook for 12-14 minutes at 400°F, flipping halfway through.
  • While they are cooking, place all the dip ingredients into a food processor & blend until smooth & creamy.
  • Garnish with parsley & enjoy!!
