Instructions
- Preheat ovenor airfryter to 425°F (218°C)degrees.
- Cut up chicken breast into nugget sized pieces. Shake a little salt and pepper directly onto the chicken.
- Get out 2 separate bowls. In one bowl, beat the egg well. In the second bowl, stir together the almond flour and spices.
- Dip each nugget into the egg wash, then coat with the almond flour mixture.
- There are 3 ways to bake these nuggets:
- Place nuggets onto the parchment paper on a baking pan
- Place nuggets onto a cooling rack over the baking sheet- this way you don't need to flip them halfway
- Place in the air fry basket of a toaster oven (if available).
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the outside looks golden and crispy. If baking directly on the parchment paper, flip nuggets halfway through.
- Serve immediately with sauces of choice! (see related recipes)

Storage
Leftovers can be refrigerated. Just plan to reheat in an oven to re-crisp the outside.
Notes
If using the cooling rack or air fryer method, there is no need to flip the nuggets.
