What number of carbs in fried apples?

These low carb fried apples are candy, tangy, spicy, and tender. They style an terrible lot just like the fried apple aspect dish at Cracker Barrel with one small distinction. You’ll be able to get pleasure from them on Atkins even on induction. You see, they aren’t actually apples.

It’s zucchini.

The rationale I used zucchini is that one serving of Cracker Barrel Fried Apples has 28 carbs per serving. 28 ! This low carb fried apple recipe has only one carb per serving. The opposite adjustments I made to make this low carb is to interchange the brown sugar from the Cracker Barrel recipe to make use of Stevia or different sugar free substitute. Granulated sugar? Similar, use a sugar free sweetener. And naturally, the Granny Smith apples gave strategy to the zucchini.

Use this as a aspect dish, spooned over a half a cup of whipped, sweetened cream cheese for a drool worthy tackle cheesecake, or preserve it easy in a dish with a fluffy dollop of sweetened bitter cream. Crumble pork rinds over the recent “apples” and revel in an apple crisp. When you find yourself additional alongside along with your keto or low carb weight loss program efforts, and may have some low carb ice cream benefit from the fake fried apples scorching over a scoop of low carb brown butter bourbon pecan ice cream. You’ll consider extra issues, I’m certain.

The zucchini is peeled and sliced into cash, then every coin is sliced into two crescents. I wish to saute mine in a mix of butter and bacon fats. It offers the zucchini deeper taste. You should utilize all butter you want. I attempted an air fryer and it didn’t permit the depth of taste to develop that you just get from sautéing the zucchini within the butter. Whereas the zucchini is sautéing you’ll add the sugar free sweetener, maple flavoring, a little bit of bourbon, cinnamon, cayenne or ancho pepper for a zesty kick, and a few cider vinegar to create that apple fritters tang.

Bam!

You should utilize your favourite zero carb sweetener. It’s onerous to say how a lot you’ll want precisely so add it to your personal style. You’ll wish to cook dinner the zucchini till it’s tender however not mushy. Simply style each as soon as in awhile till you determine that it’s excellent.

I do know. You completely don’t consider me that this tastes like fried apples. Belief me on this, simply strive it one time. And to make it completely excellent, add a dollop of my 3 ingredient keto whipped cream.
