Flourless Truly Crispy Chicken Nuggets In The Air Fryer

Welcome to my flourless truly crispy chicken nuggets in the air fryer. This is my latest recipe that combines delicious gluten free cooking with the low fat way of life thanks to air fryer cooking. If you want to treat your kids to crispy chicken nuggets that taste better than the processed food version then you’ve come to the right place!

I absolutely adore chicken nuggets. I mean I really LOVE chicken nuggets. But that is only if they are good quality. This means that the chicken must be bread and not just the rubbish bits leftover from a chicken. It must then have a really delicious coating that will give you a delicious bite sized crunch as you tuck into it.

I also want ones that will not make me fat or make me feel like I had to go for a jog afterwards to work it off.

Now finding delicious chicken nuggets that tick all those boxes and become the ideal comfort food is harder said than done.

Then I got an air fryer and I suddenly realised that I could make the most amazing chicken nuggets that are free of flour and fatty produce and that they are really quick and easy to make at the same time.

Plus if you want to please a picky toddler that won’t eat most things, then place some of these crispy chicken nuggets in front of them and then they are suddenly in food heaven and will come back for more and more.

Plus in our household it also works incredibly well with grumpy teenagers and grumpy parents that have not had much sleep due to the sleepless nights of a newborn baby!

You can also use turkey mince for this for when you have some spare, but I prefer it with the mince from chicken rather than turkey.
