Gluten Free Egg Free Fried Chicken * Gluten Free Ottawa My Real Food Life So, one thing that goes out the door when you are both gluten and egg free, is anything thats ‘breaded’.  You know, chicken fingers, zuchini sticks… all that comfort food, out the door.

 

However, what I didn’t know, was that certain flours with their starch content (like amaranth), combined with a nut flour (or chickpea), for he natural binding and crunch, work well as a breading… and THEN  I discovered flax eggs.  I figured, hey, lets throw this together and see what happens.  … well, well, well… I feel like I just discovered America!

 Seriously, this, is epic. Perfect,  Chicken fingers. Or, as its called in my house, Chicken Fetina. *insert happydance*

On to the recipe! I daren’t impose further daliance on this one.

    hi there fiona!
    there’s thankfully no flavour from the flax at all – flax oil is super concentrated, agreed its pretty yucky stuff :)
    just in case though, you can also try ground chia seed, although i find flax works the best. :D happy cooking!
    alea

    wondering if the flax eggs leave a notable flax flavor? ever since i had some bad flax oil i can’t stand the taste……but we can’t use eggs so would love to use it….if I can’t taste it : ) ???

    Hi Alea! You could also use crushed puffed millet or puffed rice if you can’t do corn. I didn’t try that yet but I may next time!!! :)

    Great recipe, Alea!!!!! I used crushed up corn flakes instead of almonds since I can’t eat nuts, and it turned out great!!!!! Smart thinking coming up with this one!!! Delicious!
