Coconut Free Almond Flour Fish and Chips
Crispy, golden, and deeply satisfying, this oven-baked take on a classic pub favorite delivers everything you love about fish and chips without a drop of coconut in sight. The coating on the cod is made entirely from almond flour seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika — no coconut flour, no coconut oil, nothing that could trigger a reaction or an unwanted flavor. Avocado oil does all the heavy lifting here, giving both the fish and the potato wedges a beautifully crisp finish straight from the oven. The cod fillets come out with a deep golden crust that's firm and flavorful, while the smoked paprika-dusted potato wedges roast up tender inside and caramelized on the edges. Everything cooks on a single wire rack setup, which means less mess and more even browning across the board. A squeeze of lemon and a handful of fresh parsley at the end brighten the whole plate and make it feel genuinely restaurant-worthy. This is the kind of weeknight dinner that tastes like a treat but comes together with straightforward pantry staples.
