Ingredients:
- 18 wooden skewers
- 18 Goodie Girl Chocolate Creme Sandwich Cookies (gluten-free, egg-free and dairy-free Oreo option)
- Coconut Oil for deep-fat frying
- 1 cup protein-fortified gluten free baking mix
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cookies:
Thread each cookie onto a wooden skewer, inserting the pointed end of the skewer into the filling. Arrange the skewered cookies on a baking sheet and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
2. Heat the Oil:
In a deep cast-iron skillet or deep fryer, heat the oil to 375°F (190°C).
3. Prepare the Batter:
a. In a shallow bowl, place the protein-fortified baking mix.
b. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and unsweetened almond milk until well combined.
c. Gradually whisk the egg and milk mixture into the baking mix until a smooth batter forms.
4. Coat the Cookies:
Holding a skewered cookie, dip it into the batter, ensuring both sides are evenly coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
5. Fry the Cookies:
a. Carefully place the coated cookies into the hot oil, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet.
b. Fry the cookies until they are golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes on each side.
c. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried cookies to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
Once all the cookies are fried and drained, dust them generously with confectioners' sugar before serving.
Enjoy these Protein-Packed Deep-Fried Cookies on Skewers as a delightful and guilt-free indulgence!
