Ingredients for 4 servings
- 4 cups oyster mushrooms, pulled into pieces
- Buttermilk
- 1 1/2 cups oat milk (or your choice of plant-based milk; I prefer oat because it’s slightly thicker)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar or lemon juice)
- 1 tablespoon The Fit Cook Southern Creole blend (OR a low-sodium cajun blend)
- Flour
- 1 1/2 cup oat flour OR all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tablespoons The Fit Cook Southern Creole blend (OR a low-sodium cajun blend)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda (optional)
- spray avocado oil (or coconut oil or grapeseed oil)
Steps
Step 1
Set air fryer to 400F.
Step 2
Wash, rinse and dry the oyster pieces.
Step 3
In a bowl, mix together the ingredients for the “buttermilk.” In a separate large bowl, mix together the ingredients for the dry ingredients.
Step 4
PRO-TIP:marinate the oysters in the buttermilk for 10 – 15 minutes. This will help them become more moist and help the flour to stick to the oyster better. After marinating, gently shake the oysters free from the buttermilk and place on a plate.
Step 5
Dip each oyster in the buttermilk bowl, then the flour bowl, then the buttermilk bowl AGAIN, and then the flour bowl AGAIN, and then onto the air-fryer basket. Repeat.
Step 6
Once all the oysters are in the basket, generously spray them with avocado oil (or grapeseed, coconut or any other high smoke point oil).
Step 7
Cook them in increments of 5 minutes for 15 minutes. Every 5 minutes, I either flip them over AND/OR lightly spray any pieces that still have “white” flour to ensure they are frying in the basket. Repeat if you have to do this in batches.
Step 8
Enjoy fresh out of the air fryer with some flaked sea salt and your choice of plant based dipping sauce. I mixed plain almond yogurt with garlic powder, onion powder, lemon and chives for a super delicious treat!
