    Keto Air Fried Deviled Eggs are a delicious appetizer made with horseradish stuffed eggs rolled in pecan and toasted in an air fryer.

    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.

      Would almond flour work for these at all?

        I don't see why not. Most recipes call for breading with flour, dipping in an egg wash and then rolling in panko bread crumbs for a nice crunchy crust after frying (air frying in this case). You could just skip the panko, or roll them in finely chopped nuts (or almond/pecan meal) if you want to try it.
