Ingredients

  • 3 cups of a variety of vegetables (onions, zucchini, potatoes)

Wet

  • ½ cup flour (gluten-free or all-purpose)
  • 1 tablespoon neat egg powder
  • ⅔ cup plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  3. In a separate shallow bowl, stir together the dry ingredients. 
  4. Coat the vegetables, one piece at a time, first in the wet mixture and then dip into the dry mixture until each piece is thoroughly coated in flakes. 
  5. Add one single layer batch at a time to the air fryer. 
  6. Cook for 10 minutes, and then if necessary, add additional 1 minute cooking increments, as needed to reach a golden brown crust on the vegetables.

  8. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy your guilt-free air fried vegetables!
