Tomatoes Caprese (Kaufmann Diet Friendly)
These Oven Fried Green Tomatoes are grain free, gluten-free, and are Kaufmann diet friendly. If you are following Doug Kaufmann‘s diet this would be just fine on the Phase 2, also known as Kaufmann 2. If you are not sure what the Kaufmann diet is, I have a full explanation in my article titled What Can I Eat as well as my television interview on Know the Cause discussing my years of chronic illness due to mold exposure.
What You Need For Tomatoes Caprese
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 2 large green tomatoes
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 1 egg
- 1/4 -1/2 cup coconut milk (or any milk of your choice)
- mozzarella cheese in the shape of a ball you can slice
- salt
Instructions
- Heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Mix egg and milk in a bowl.
- Place all flours and salt and pepper and mix in a separate bowl.
- Cut the green tomatoes about 1/4 inch thick.
- Fully submerge tomato slice in the egg, then in the flour, then once again into the egg mixture and flour for a second time.
- Place parchment paper over a baking sheet and grease the paper well. Add more salt and pepper before placing in the oven.
- Bake for 20 minutes and turn them over half way through baking. You can also fry these in coconut oil. I have made them this way as well and it’s delicious.
- Slice cheese in 1/4 inch slices and place between tomatoes AFTER they come out of the oven. My husband loves to put either a sugar free balsamic glaze or pimento cheese spread on his. Enjoy!
