Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- Adding pork rinds, breadcrumbs are used to give an added crunch and to replace toss in 1/4 cup of pork rind panko in place. Some use almond flour but this isn't needed at all.
- Refrigerate, I made the cakes ahead of time. Then later in the day I uncovered the cakes and fried them that way. But, they can be made right after mixing.
- For leftovers, store in a container or wrap in foil. Store no more than 3-5 days and 5 is pushing it.
- Using an air fryer, heat air fryer to 400ºF and cook for 8 minutes
