How to Make 1 Point Plus Hg's Faux Fried Pickles

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly spray a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 1 cup crushed cereal (like crushed corn flakes), ½ cup panko bread crumbs, 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix, and ½ teaspoon of your favorite spices (e.g., garlic powder, onion powder, paprika).
  4. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible.
  5. Using a meat mallet (or a rolling pin), crush the mixture into a fine breadcrumb consistency.
  6. Set aside.
  7. In a bowl, place 1 cup of pickle chips and pat them completely dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  8. In a separate shallow dish, whisk 2 tablespoons of egg substitute.
  9. Dip the pickle chips into the egg substitute, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  10. Gently drain off any excess egg substitute.
  11. Transfer half of the egg-coated pickle chips to the bag of crumbs. Seal the bag and shake vigorously to coat the pickles evenly.
  12. Arrange the coated pickle chips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  13. Repeat steps 10-12 with the remaining pickle chips.
  14. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and crispy.
  15. Serve immediately with your favorite low-calorie dipping sauce, such as light Thousand Island dressing. Enjoy!
