How to Make Halloumi Fries
Step 1 – The Basics
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a baking tray with baking paper or a drizzle of oil.
Chop halloumi into 30 sticks.
Step 2 – Mix It Up
Place coconut flour in a small bowl with smoked paprika.
Beat one of the eggs (you may or may not need the second one; that’s why it is best to just start with one of them), and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Place almond flour in another small bowl.
Step 3 – Batter Up
Coat the halloumi sticks first in coconut flour, shake them to remove excess. Then dip them in the beaten egg. And at the end in almond flour until it is well coated.
Place halloumi sticks in the prepared baking tray and drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil on top of them.
Step 4 – Bake to Perfection
Bake them for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on top.
To make the avocado mayonnaise, just mix all the ingredients and enjoy, best when fresh!
