Ingredients

Instructions

  • Add coconut oil to a small saucepan and heat on medium-high heat. Place a thermometer in the oil to keep track of temp.
  • Place coconut flour in a small bowl, whisk two eggs into a second bowl and add the ground pork finely to a third bowl. You can easily grind the pork rinds by adding to a zip top bag and crush them.
  • Cut the 8 ounce log into 8 even pieces and place on a plate.
  • One at a time coat the goat cheese in coconut flour, egg wash and then pork rinds and place back onto the plate.
  • When the coconut oil has reached 345 degrees add two goat cheese to the oil and cook for 30 seconds. Gently flip and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Remove and set on a plate with a paper towel.
  • Repeat until all goat cheese has been fried.
  • Serve with favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
  • NOTE: we find keeping the oil between 330 and 350 degrees is the best for frying. You can do this by turning the heat up and down as you see fit.
