Chip-Crusted Pickle Poppers

Prep Time: 5
Total Time: 15

Yield: 2 Servings

These aren't drive-thru fried pickles. These are clean ingredient, Vaca-crusted snack bombs with a tangy core and a loud, beefy crunch. Air fry, oven-bake, or go full-send and fry 'em.

 

Directions

Preheat oven or air fryer to 400°F. Line with parchment or use a rack.

Dry the pickles. No one likes soggy crusts.

Dip pickles in egg, then coat in chip crumbs mixed with garlic powder + cayenne if using.

Place on tray and spray with oil for max crisp. Bake/air fry 8–10 mins until golden.

Serve hot with your dip of choice and zero shame.

Ingredients

1 jar of thick-sliced dill pickles (patted dry)

1 egg, beaten

1 cup crushed Vaca Chips

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp cayenne (optional)

Dipping sauce: mustard aioli, ranch, or hot honey
