Paleo Fried Pickles

Sharing is caring!

Anybody else’s kids love fried pickles as much as mine?? It’s like the one appetizer they always want to order when we go out to eat. Unfortunately, those are also usually coated in a gluten-filled breading. So like any other tasty treat, I try to adapt the recipe into a better version for not only me but my kids as well. These Paleo fried pickles are both gluten-free and Paleo friendly.

For the breading on these you can use just about any gluten-free flour. I have used tapioca flour, a gluten-free multipurpose flour, as well as cassava flour. Add in spices to your flour mixture and these things are better than any restaurant version! Football season is upon us, whip up these bad boys for a game day appetizer or bring them to your next tailgate party!
