“BREADING” FOR MEAT, CHICKEN, FISH AND VEGETABLES
If you have made the “Bread” Crumbs, you are ready to roll.  Of course, if you prefer, you can simply use 3/4  cup (175 mL) of the Gluten-Free Bake Mix and omit the coconut flour. I honestly don't miss bread crumbs anymore.  The only thing I need to do is figure out if almond meal will also produce good bread crumbs (would be cheaper using homemade almond meal!).  I don't see why not.  I need to try that out soon.  I keep saying that, but will soon!  If anyone beats me to it, let me know your findings.  I would appreciate it, as would my readers, I am sure.

2/cup “Bread” Crumbs* (150 mL)  OR see below use the Gluten-Free Bake Mix OR simply use ground almonds
1/cup Parmesan cheese (125 mL)
2 tbsp coconut flour (30 mL)
3/tsp salt, OR to taste (may need less for vegetables) (3 mL)
1/tsp Italian seasoning (2 mL)
1/4  tsp black pepper (1 mL)
3 eggs
1 tbsp water (15 mL)

In medium bowl, combine “Bread” Crumbs, Parmesan cheese, coconut flour, salt, Italian seasoning and black pepper.  Spread out on a dinner plate or place in a medium-large container.

In another small bowl, whisk eggs and water with a fork.  Dip meat, chicken, fish or vegetables in the egg wash first and then spoon the “Breading” over all.  In a large, nonstick frying pan, fry “breaded” food items in bacon fat or light-tasting olive oil.

Helpful Hint:  *If desired, use 3/cup (175 mL) Gluten-Free Bake Mix instead of the “Bread” Crumbs and omit the coconut flour.
