Coating

  • Mix all the dry ingredients for the breading then mix in coconut milk 1/4 cup at time until you have a thick pancake batter.
  • Dunk the nuggets into the batter and remove to a lined baking sheet
  • Place in freezer for at least 2 hours.
  • Once frozen heat a high walled pan or dutch oven with your frying oil of choice to 350ยบ f ( I use vegetable oil or canola oil
  • Fry until golden brown and place on a wire rack, sprinkle with salt and place in a warmed oven/microwave/toaster oven to keep warm. You want to eat this warm
  • If you make a big batch you can freeze them and reheat in toaster oven or air fryer and they come out great! These get better on their second cook actually!
