  • HOW TO MAKE FROZEN KETO FRENCH FRIES
    All over social media, Heavenly Fan’s viral keto french fries viral has taken storm. Everyone is trying this 3 ingredient keto recipe that is supposed to look, feel and taste just like McDonald’s french fries. Of course, I had to try these low carb french fries that her fans call Heavenly Fries.
    There are two ways to make them. She shows you how to make them using almond flour and coconut flour. I only used almond flour to make these keto fries because I don’t care for the taste of coconut flour.
    In this video, I show you how to make her recipe. Along with the 2 common big mistakes I made when making them and how you can avoid these mistakes when you make your keto french fries.
    I also show you some of my experiments with trying to perfect the fries even more. Three attempts and the last was successful! If you want to see how I tweaked to make authentic tasting keto french fries, then stay to the end.
    The most amazing thing to come from this recipe, besides the best keto french fries ever, is that you can FREEZE THESE FRENCH FRIES!!! To freeze, lay them out on a parchment lined baking tray. Place in freezer to harden. Once hard, place the keto fries in a freezer safe bag and freeze until ready to use. To heat, add to hot oil or bake from frozen!

    ============================================================
    KETO FRENCH FRIES RECIPE
    100 g almond flour (1/2 cup + 1/3 cup)
    1 tablespoon xanthan gum
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    6 tablespoons hot water
    20 drops mashed potato flavor drops, optional
    olive oil for frying
    In a small bowl, whisk together almond flour, xanthan gum and salt. Mix in hot water and flavor extract if using. Knead together with hands until combined. Place dough in between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to an 1/4 inch thick using a rolling pin. Slice dough into small strips. Try to get them as thin as possible, around 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
    TO FRY: To a large skillet, add enough olive oil to cover the keto french fries as they cook. Let heat over medium heat. Once the oil is heated, add a single layer of fries to the oil and let them cook until golden brown on all sides. May need to turn them to cook all sides. Remove from the oil and onto a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with additional salt if needed.
    TO BAKE: To bake, spread french fries out in a single layer onto a baking tray. Spray the fries with olive oil. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes.
    TO AIR FRY: To air fry, spread french fries onto the air fryer basket or tray in a single layer. Spray the fries with olive oil. Air fry at 400 degrees for 6 minutes.
    TO FREEZE: Lay strips of dough onto a parchment lined baking tray and stick in the freezer. Once frozen, remove the fries from the tray and store in freezer safe bag in the freezer. Proceed with directions below to cook from frozen.

      @macylouwho1187 Před 2 lety +5

      Can waxy almond nutmeat bits actually absorb water? It doesn’t seem like they could do anything but be combined into something due to water and other ingredients causing them to stick to the rest. I have a parrot, and she often drops broken bits of her assorted nuts into her water bowl. They don’t seem to swell up or actually absorb any water, they just get a bit slimy in there after sitting until I change the water again.

    • @RememberMeYeah
      @RememberMeYeah Před rokem +21

      The reason for resting it is because of the xanthan gum which needs time to absorb the moisture to do its job of binding the almond flour.

    I tried them both ways, and trust me, the coconut flour is the way to go! More like a real potato. I too, don't care for the taste of coconut flour either, so I added a 1/2 tsp of onion powder. Also after rolling out the dough, I placed it on a flat sheet pan and put it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. These puff up when you fry them, so you have to roll the dough real thin, less than a 1/4 of an inch. Chilling the dough helped with cutting them into "fries". I used a pizza wheel which worked the best. I had leftover dough that I kept in the fridge over night and they came out fine the next day.

  • @skoal7731

  • @alabemos
    @alabemos Před 3 lety +130

    I prefer the coconut recipe myself. Here's how I make the fries faster when I'm just cooking for myself: Put dry ingredients for one serving in a plastic bag. Shake to mix well. Add water (room temp. is fine) to bag and knead the bag until water is fully distributed and you have a dough. (No resting period necessary.) Turn the dough out onto a silicone mat, and keeping your hand in the bag, pat the dough down to a ¼ inch thickness. Slice and fry. If I'm making several servings, I usually just put the dough through my pasta pronto and it forms the fries in nice round, perfectly sized fries. I also made up a mix so I can just pull out the amount for one or more servings.

    Often times recipes call for letting ingredients rest in an effort to allow time for dry components to absorb the liquids and fully hydrate the dough/batter. It should help with making a smoother consistency of the final product.

    The fresh one, near the cheeses, in the market. Mix it into the dried ingredients before you add the water. Then cook as normal. They will be extra crispy.

When I first made them they were nasty and hard (too thick) and I remembered you mentioned how yours were bad when they were too thick, so that's the only reason I tried again and they were LOVELY!!! LIKE WTF!!! You literally have to roll the dough extra flat, not so flat that the dough is coming up when you unpeel the top piece of parchment paper though. You literally also have to cut them like MCDONALDS FRIES it shouldn't be thicker than that or thin like chips, add no other seasoning but salt in the dough (used onion&garlic powder the first time in the dough & this may have also altered the texture) and I promise you're good to go. Also, that potato flavor is AMAZING thank you so much for everything!!

I saw you commented on another video that you were buying flavoring, so I had a heads up. Thank you for taking the time to do all the experimenting. I know it takes up a lot of time and burns through ingredients. You saved me from tweaking, because I am a tweaker. I just made these earlier, and even without ketchup my teenager couldn't wait til I pulled the next batch from the pan. She is NOT easy to please, so that is saying a lot. I can just imagine how they will be next level with the flavoring. I love that I will be able to freeze these. Conveniences in keto don't come along too often. Thanks for your hard work.

    ​ @KetoFocus thank you for this post! I've been trying to find a way to give @HeavenlyFan's fry more of a french fry taste for me and OOO and salt are exactly what's needed (for me at least). The other thing is @SeriousKeto suggested sifting the flours which I did that blended them so well that mixing the dough was super easy. I'm definitely ordering the extracts and doing this again. I liked the almond better than the coconut (I made both) but I needed the flavor to be there so this excites me! A HUUUGE thank you to @HeavenlyFan too for putting this out there. Yet another low carb variation that will stop me from missing the SAD way of eating.

      wow, you must have a very sensitive pallet if 3 drops changed the taste for you. Me I am up to 30 drops. To be honest i dont think they taste anything like fries. But i have only been ketoing for 4 months and i still remember what real french fries taste like. With that said and prolly since im lazy. I just roll it thin and cut it in squares and make potato crisps. Oh and as far as the salt goes I use 3/4 tsp salt in the recipe and salt them when they come out of the oil.

  • @roxycarmichael1678

    I am such a French fry lover. So thank you so much for this recipe. They sound delicious. I want the extract but I’m in Canada in Winnipeg and it’s very cold here now. Lots of snow so I will have to wait to order it otherwise it will freeze. It will cost me $17.85 for it with delivery. I think adding it to whipped cauliflower would be awesome. Thank you for finding that for us. This is the first time I’ve seen you. I think you’re great and I have subscribed. I might make them without the extract for now. I’ve always cooked fries in lard. Maybe I’ll try a few.

    Thank you for this recipe. Just like you, I like to experiment in my kitchen. So I added the almond flour quantity minus 2 tablespoons which I replaced it with coconut flour and added 7 and a half tablespoon of hot water. For extra crispness I dusted the dough in arrowroot flour. I use this when I cook chicken schnitzel along with pork rinds and I always get them very crispy. I also dusted them at the end with garlic powder and salt.just an idea😊

    good vid and pleased with acknowledgements. Re resting time. As with standard bread baking it is essential that the liquid in the dough is fully absorbed and rest time after mixing aids this process. I rest my dough for at least an hour and have success in rolling out (without the need for baking paper) everytime!!

Also, thanks for mentioning to stick with olive oil. I was planning on avocado oil, as I am planning on also cooking Highfalutin' Low Carb's chicken tender recipe tonight, which specifically says to not use olive oil.

For coconut flour I too allow them to rest and I add a few shakes of French Fry Seasoning to the mix and when I cut them , I use a wavy lasagna cutter- which gives them the appearance of crinkle cut fries 😃.
