Keto Air Fried Deviled Eggs an elegant but easy appetizer

Air Fried Deviled Eggs are a keto friendly appetizer that is sure to spice up your next party.

Recently I was chatting with my brother the chef about what to do with the beautiful microgreens I got from the CSA.

He usually used them as a garnish at the restaurant. And then he suggested I use them as a nest for Fried Deviled Eggs!!

Fried Deviled Eggs? Say what now? This is a "thing"? Yes, it is. And they are delicious.

So after a little research, I rolled them in pecan meal instead of the egg wash- panko mixture (low carb yeah!) and popped them in my air fryer.

Not only did I put them in a nest of kohlrabi microgreens I added some leek microgreens on top. But, use any fresh herbs you have. (Oh my, did I just sound like Ina Garten there?)

How to Deep Fry Deviled Eggs

These can be deep fried if you prefer. But, I hate frying, especially such a small amount.

Basically, you'd fry it like any other breaded item.

1. heat oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
2. coat eggs in pecan meal
3. gently slide the eggs into the hot oil and fry until golden brown.
4. use a slotted spoon to move the eggs to a paper towel lined sheet tray, season with salt and pepper if desired.
