love you but Thrive Market is the worst. I joined and placed an order just to support you. over two weeks later and the order never arrived. I hope you find a new BETTER sponsor soon.
Thank you Wesley for the kind shoutout. Really happy to see you making these fries as I'm a fan of yours. I love your honesty for sharing your very human keto experience. Many will be inspired by you for sure. And bonus points for the chopsticks :)) Much love x
Oh, my stars! I’m so upset I somehow missed your comment until now - almost a week later! Thanks so much for the delicious recipe, Heavenly Fan. I can’t wait to watch more of your videos and make your delicious recipes! Thanks for the kind words. XOXO
@@HighfalutinLowCarb No problem at all! It must have been buried under all those comments :)) Have a wonderful year ahead and looking forward to more of your videos X
So I just used the dough in my dash mini waffle iron...used parmesan on bottom and top, flattened the dough..OH MY WORD!!! Half the work and WAY crispier!!
Thank you for honoring the recipe developer. I have seen a few people steal and market this recipe as their own. I've already made these. They are even better when you let them cool just a bit. They crisp up. yum.
I've made the Keto Focus version with the Mashed Potato Extract. The extract makes all the difference in the world. It takes Heavenly Fan's recipe to a whole other level.
@@angelinaferriola3212 Have faith. The Keto Focus recommended extract tastes wonderful. Next time I make them I'm going to try adding an extra 5 drops to bump up the flavor.
@@darcyjane8031 I just saw your question today. I searched online and found a place to order some. Turns out it is located in Las Vegas. I could have driven there. LOL. Regardless, we switched to carnivore over two years ago.
I made the recipe with 1/2 coconut flour and half almond flour, and scaled the water accordingly, lots of salt and a bit of all purpose seasoning ... the best I've made. And a good sub for real potato fries :)
I’ve made these and I agree they are fantastic. I know EVERYONE had their OWN lil tweak to these but here’s my two cents worth. I heard McDonald’s uses beef tallow to fry their fries so I replaced one of the tablespoons of water with a tablespoon of BEEF BROTH. I think it REALLY makes them taste more like fries. I do prefer the coconut flour ones but after experimenting A LOT you have to cut the coconut ones thinner. I’m soooo glad you tried these! I make a BIG batch and freeze them, that way I can have ready to go fries whenever I want! You can also make AWESOME crackers with this recipe! These make the lowest carb & best crackers I’ve tried. I add a lil ranch or everything but bagel seasoning.
Wes, I thought of you the other day while making a keto chocolate cake. I was getting tired of sifting all the dry ingredients with my fingers through the mesh, when I hit upon a brilliant idea. I started using the wire whisk instead of my fingers. It works great and soooo fast! You will love it.
I've been wanting to try these. I told myself "If Wesley makes them and says they're good, only then will I make them" So I will be making these tomorrow for a NYE low carb snack. I love your channel. I'm looking forward to a reset..... I fell off the wagon on Thanksgiving. Love you Wesley, you're awesome!
I make these and place the dough into a ziploc baggie, then roll it. The bag forces the dough into a perfect square. I also toss the dough into the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm up the dough, then I slice them thin. Works like a charm.
I made the Heavenly Fan coconut flour fries tonight with the suggested addition of 1/3 cup fresh finely grated parmesan courtesy of Mayra of Keto Love. Then fried them crisply and they were as close to regular fries as we could imagine. I'll try the almond flour version next. Try the coconut version again with a little salt and parmesan and see how you like it.
Wes, when rolling out something like this, try folding up the parchment into a rectangle around the dough, and roll it in that, you'll get that perfect rectangle every time with no fuss. Just make sure to cut 1 large sheet of parchment so it can double over itself around the dough.
Awesome! Since they’re sticky prior to cooking, I wonder about making “seasoned fries” and rolling them in a seasoned crumb mixture (pork rinds/nutritional yeast/ and “shaky cheese” aka green can parmesan, plus some herbs/spices) before cooking. Yum. When I used to make traditional fried chicken I always fried extra clumps of seasoned flour because that was my favorite part. Lol
Heavenly Fan does appear to be highly talented. I happened to see your video listed there while I was watching her video on the French fries. I can't help but think she must be a chef. And she explains it so well, as if she may also teach.
The heavenly fries have made it to your channel, thank you for trying it out Wes, I’m a big fan of yours. I’ve seen a variation where Parmesan cheese was added to the mix , I tried that version as well and it was amazing. Love from the Uk
oh wow I need to try that I've done the garlic and butter with the air fryer so good but I'm definitely going to try the parmesan cheese next time you can also do cinnamon sticks
I tried the almond ones this afternoon. Didn’t care for them as potatoes but they make good bread sticks. Hubby loves French fries; when he saw them he was fooled, till he tasted them. Oh well I always have to try something new anyway.
I had already watched the Heavenly Fan video. I watched yours to get your opinion, I haven't made them yet. Thanks Wes. And how cool that Serious Keto watches your channel too. You guys are two of my favs!
Thanks for this. As I understand it, HeavenlyFan said it was one of those kitchen mistakes as she was trying to make something else. I've been thinking of trying these. I think your review has pushed me into giving it a try this week.
Lucky for me, Heavenly Fan is the first place I saw this recipe and I was immediately reading that few keto TH-camrs gave her credit. I'm absolutely overjoyed that every single one of the TH-camrs I follow that talk about this recipe are giving credit. Good on you man, and thank you for all of your wonderful content - your comparisons and taste tests have saved me a ton of headaches!
oh my GOODNESS I have been low carb and Keto for years and have so missed french fries! Thank you so much ! I will first try them using the coconut flour version (i try not to use too much nut flour). Primal kitchen makes a great keto kethup to go along with them :)
Wes! When I saw the title I was like "OMG, it probably takes 14,375 ingredients!" I can't believe how simple and easy this looks/is! Will def give it a try!!!
Made these today w coconut flour. I added salt and a tbsp nutritional yeast...they are really good! I didn't roll out the dough quite enough and didn't realize they puff up a bit, but great alternative to fries and alot easier than cutting a rock hard avocado for avo fries! Thanks!
Just made these! Added salt and onion powder to the dough and fried with lard...and they are good! I think i put a little too much onion powder to them ..they taste a lot like hush puppies! Still good as far as I'm concerned. Even put a small dab of beef broth base in the water...this really turned out some flavor.
I have made these 3 times this week! I do think the Mashed Potato extract is the key, with the coconut flour recipe....absolutely fantastic! Thank you, Wes❤🧡💛💚💙
I've made these a couple of times now. This time I did a mix of the almond and coconut flour. Added a little salt and 1 T parm cheese; then cooked in coconut oil. Pretty good 😋👍
Wes!! So happy to see a new video from you, my favorite you tuber!! Hope you and your hubby are doing well😊. I fell off the keto wagon last month so I’m ready to get back on!
Keto was so good for me that it changed my whole body. I lost more than 30 kg and now, after one year, I can eat whatever I want and don't get fat. If I was eating a year ago what I eat now, I would probably be 30+ kg fatter. This channel helped me a lot on my diet days. Thank you!
I sprinkle some almond flour on the rolling pin and dough and it rolls effortlessly. No sticking. I also don't add as much water as you did. I think that added to the stickiness. These are great! 👍😊
I'm waiting for my coconut flour to arrive from Amazon so I can try these....😁....I can't remember where I saw it but you can also add mashed potato flavoring to the dough and it makes it taste even better. The company for the extract is called One On One Flavors. I simply MUST try it!
So glad you posted this..was looking forward to see your reaction to the taste test 😁 I made the version using almond flour and they were “heavenly”. I don’t own a rolling pin (lol) so I hand pressed the dough and perhaps it wasn’t as thin as her recipe called for, and used the fine ground almond flour. I found that they tasted more potato-ey, like a slightly thicker traditional fry and not overly crunchy. Still tasted fabulous with sugar-free ketchup and Cajun seasoning... I saw someone post that instead of cutting them into “fries” that they added some garlic powder and Italian seasoning and left it rectangle for a “garlic bread”. I want to try this!
Yes. I've made them. Yummm! As long as you haven't added garlic powder or something, just shake them up in a bag with cinnamon and erythritol. (I've made them the same size as the fries, and larger, but if they are too big they will not get done inside.)
I been telling ppl the almond flour version is so much better. And dipped in "ketchup and mayo" it taste just like a real fry. ESPECIALLY cooked in peanut oil
I just found your channel yesterday, and have been on the low carb/Keto thing for a bout 4 years now. I was eating potato FFs while watching this vid, because i hadn't found an alternative! I will definitely be trying both of these recipes.
Happy to see you make this video Wes. I have watched both Heavenly Fan and Keto Focus' video. I was intrigued by Keto Focus' suggestion of potato extract (which I didn't even know was a thing). But my first thought was making up a batch of french fry seasoning to add to the dough. I used to enjoy (potato) seasoned fries way back in my preketo days 😋
I've always used chopsticks when frying. Learned from my Japanese Mom. I developed a tree nut allergy this year and ordered sunflower flour/meal. I think I'll try this using that. Would you consider making a video using almond flour vs sunflower flour/meal in baking? Wishing you and yours a Happy New Year!
Made these Heavenly Fan ones with coconut flour but added also salt in the mixture for flavor and I also added Keto Focus suggestion of mashed potato extract (this flavoring smells funky AF but is amazing also in mashed cauliflower). Made a double batch weeks ago, ate the first batch with keto fried catfish and fried shrimp and froze the second batch and just cooked them from the freezer last night to go with big fat bacon cheese burgers. We love them!
ALL of that sounds delicious! I’ve used the One-On-One Flavors Cornbread flavoring with good results. Guess I need to try the potato, too! Thanks for sharing! ❤️
The Amoretti has a fresh sweet corn flavor (think fresh creamed corn) and the OOO Cornbread flavor is more liked baked cornbread. I like both, but use the cornbread flavor more often. (Plus, lots cheaper as you said!)
Hi, Did you get the mashed potato extract online? Please can you share the link? I’ve checked Amazon uk,sainsburys and Tesco’s but can’t find them. Thanks in advance
@@olanmao9180 here you go! www.oooflavors.com/products/mashed-potato-flavored-liquid-concentrate?variant=15843095511134¤cy=USD&gclid=CjwKCAiA57D_BRAZEiwAZcfCxXfEqvydMBVEPMFNVTFOul0747zQ1gG1gY8SkSSJqsTG_KJfotFAyBoC9MMQAvD_BwE
OMG will never have veggie fries again. I went on her website and praised her for bringing this recipe to our tables! And kudos to you for supporting her! I made the almond flour and they were the perfect addition to my veggie burger for lunch! Having slipped from LC over the holidays, this seemed to get me back where I need to be. All that crap I ate from T-day to Christmas gave me the worst heartburn I've experienced in years!! Keep the videos coming!!! Need the battles in our kitchens, not elsewhere!
I add salt, garlic, a little cayenne and parmesan cheese to the recipe. I sprinkle some parm. cheese on the cutting board to roll the fries out on. They come out tasting like seasoned french fries, soooo much better than the straight recipe. I prefer the coconut flour recipe. These are a game changer!
Yessss.. I have loved her videos. When I saw her do these my mind was blown. So glad you gave her credit, I noticed others did not. I love you sweetie, your face when you taste the food makes me get off my bottom and run to the kitchen..lol ❤️🙏🏻
I make these using half almond flour and half coconut. Beautiful. Thank you Heavenly Fan and Hifal.... Going to try a sweet version with cinnamon, what's to lose?
Ive just made these, i made half the dough in to fries as is, the other half i mashed up some steamed celeriac (celery root) and steamed swede (rutabega) and mashed them both in to the dough, and then rolled and cut it in to thicker fries, like british chips/steak cut fries. They tasted very much like the real thing.
I really wanted to like these. I really did, but I couldn't eat a whole one. I am sorry cause they looked great! Maybe I will try them again. But I do like Heavenly Fan's ideas. She has a lot of cool recipes I can't wait to try!
How crazy is it that today for lunch (I live in France so it was 10 hours ago) I wanted to make them (I've already have, both versions) and looked at your channel to see if you did make them at some point, I don't know why, just to have your opinion! And 8 hours later you uploaded your video! That's really insane xD I prefer also the almond ones because I could feel too much the coconut flavor, even with seasoning. So today I tried mozza sticks and I failed miserably, maybe one day you can do a video on keto mozza sticks? Anyway, for the fries, I'll do a combination of both next time! Love your videos!
I've done these a buncha times and they are really good, definitely the best keto french fry out there. A variation with the dough I've done a few times was use half almond half lupin flour and added a bit of baking powder to the dough. rolled it into about a half inch thick log and cut them up like gnocchi. used a fork to make the grooves in them then boiled them. that was actually really good too.
Have you tried Lupin Flour? "Tim Talks Cooking"made these & substituted Lupin Flour. I have yet to try this recipe, but l love Lupin Flour for coating fried chicken. I have not experimented much with it for other uses, but as part of a dredge for fried food, I've made it to the Promised Land.
Okay, I made these. First time as written, the were okay but not the full flavor profile I wanted. I made them a second time as a slightly larger batch (67g coconut flour, 4 tsp Xanthan gum, 3/4 c ground fresh parmesan, 10 tbsp hot water) and to that I added 1/2 tsp Knorr beef bouillon powder, 2 tbsp beef tallow, 1/4 tsp erythritol, and 20 drops of mashed potato extract in the water before adding. I did it all in the food processor then let it rest in a zipper bag as instructed. When I cut them, i tried to make them smaller so they were easier to handle and used 2 sets of tongs to work with them in the oil (combo of avocado and beef tallow) because they're really sticky until set. O...M...G... French Fries are back on the menu!!!
French fried made with 😊Lupin flour is the best. It tastes very much like real French Fried. I have made French Fried with coconut and almond flour as well.
Love what you bring to us....There are a few of you I watch all the time....love it that you all give the credit where credit is due....love Heavenly Fan!! You too Wes...!! And Serious Keto and Keto Connect.... There's also someone that did this with Lupin Flour....I tried that and this hit it out of the park for me....just a suggestion that you might want to try. Let me know if you want the link and I will look for it and provide it to you. This gentleman also gave credit to Heavenly Fan as well. What a great community!! Blessings and happy new year!!
Great! Just getting into it for better health and naturally lowering my blood pressure. Will definitely try this recipe because I have those ingredients right now
I find a good mix by adding one Tbsp of ccnut flour to the almond flour mix. Also, if you fold in the sides of a piece of parchment to cover the dough, you can roll a rectangle really easily. It helps to use the parchment on a roll and cut your own size. Also, Parmesean cheese (1Tbsp) adds a nice flavor and crispiness. Adjust water as needed. Love your vids!
I have found that if you just use the back of a spoon to spread the dough out to make a rectangle, it works much better. And sometimes I even wet the spoon in that hot water that I had on hand. Works beautifully!
After months (or years) of not eating french fries, any version of fries is great!! I think your taste buds change... most every food I treat myself to NEVER tastes as good as I remember!! I'll take a look at Thrive Market 😁. Thanks for sharing.

Wes, which do you like better...the almond flour fries or the jicama fries?
Happy NYE 🎄🎊🎉🍾💕
Wes, do you have a list of your go to's from thrive ?
Loved this!!! Can we pleas get a Keto Naan/Chapati/Flatbread battle? I'm having a heck of a time finding a recipe that turns out like it should.
love you but Thrive Market is the worst. I joined and placed an order just to support you. over two weeks later and the order never arrived. I hope you find a new BETTER sponsor soon.
Thank you Wesley for the kind shoutout. Really happy to see you making these fries as I'm a fan of yours. I love your honesty for sharing your very human keto experience. Many will be inspired by you for sure. And bonus points for the chopsticks :)) Much love x
His chopsticks skills are impressive. 🤣

@@HighfalutinLowCarb No problem at all! It must have been buried under all those comments :)) Have a wonderful year ahead and looking forward to more of your videos X
Made these yesterday with coconut flour and they were 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was like the coconut flour version seem like the perfect “funnel cake” fries lol
Glad to see you gave Fan the credit she deserves. Not everyone has your class, Wes.
Steve - Ah Crap! You caught me watching my other favorite Keto channel. :)
@@StoneColdMagic no worries. Wes is a good guy.😉
No kidding! I love both of these guys.
@@tabbyt1658 - Yep. Steve, Wes, and heaping tablespoon of Joe Duff and we've got the perfect recipe! :)
@@SeriousKeto - Okay. Then I'll confess to loving Joe Duff too. ;)
Hmm I'm thinking about a "loaded fries" kinda situation ... Carne asada and queso on top... YUMMM!
Once rolled out put in the freezer for a bit before you cut. It makes it much easier to cut without sticking too much
Do you think it can be frozen for convenient use latet?
@@doloresnorton8566 yes, after cutting them I only use what I need and freeze the rest.
So I just used the dough in my dash mini waffle iron...used parmesan on bottom and top, flattened the dough..OH MY WORD!!! Half the work and WAY crispier!!
Hey would you consider posting a video of your technique?
Wow! I’m intrigued and can’t wait to try this hack! Thanks for sharing 😎
I love your channel. You're like the sieve of keto recipes; we get the real good stuff and all the lumpy things get left behind!
This is perhaps my favorite comment ever! “Sift, y’all!” ❤️❤️🙂🙂
I find Heavenly Fan so very interesting. She is so lovely and unique , everyone needs to check out her channel 💕
I agree Heavenly Fan is so relaxing & soothing when she speaks. She is amazing. So happy to see you make this recipe.

I've made the Keto Focus version with the Mashed Potato Extract. The extract makes all the difference in the world. It takes Heavenly Fan's recipe to a whole other level.
I just got the flavoring. I hope it tastes better than it smells. I got 4 different ones and they all smell awful!
@@angelinaferriola3212 Have faith. The Keto Focus recommended extract tastes wonderful. Next time I make them I'm going to try adding an extra 5 drops to bump up the flavor.
where on earth did you buy mashed potato extract ???
I'd like to find an extract without propylene glycol. Not wanting to trade health for taste.

Biggest keto thing since the chaffle.

Biggest BS more like it. Doesn't taste like FF at all & they get cold right away.
@@chiablum1453 then don’t make them

The coconut flour test more like potatoes due to the sweetness of it and yes it’s my favorite. Very thankful for her recipes
Subscribed! I love that you gave Fan credit ❤️
I have tried both and like them equally. I enjoy serving with a low carb ketchup mixed with mayonnaise (fry sauce)
Oh hell ya!
Made these today w coconut flour. I added salt and a tbsp nutritional yeast...they are really good! I didn't roll out the dough quite enough and didn't realize they puff up a bit, but great alternative to fries and alot easier than cutting a rock hard avocado for avo fries! Thanks!

Love her channel! She is very innovative. And thanks to you and your work in making these videos and make it fun for ppl to watch as well. 😊
I have made these 3 times this week! I do think the Mashed Potato extract is the key, with the coconut flour recipe....absolutely fantastic! Thank you, Wes❤🧡💛💚💙
I've made these a couple of times now. This time I did a mix of the almond and coconut flour. Added a little salt and 1 T parm cheese; then cooked in coconut oil. Pretty good 😋👍
Wesley, just watching you makes me happy
Wes!! So happy to see a new video from you, my favorite you tuber!! Hope you and your hubby are doing well😊. I fell off the keto wagon last month so I’m ready to get back on!
Keto was so good for me that it changed my whole body. I lost more than 30 kg and now, after one year, I can eat whatever I want and don't get fat. If I was eating a year ago what I eat now, I would probably be 30+ kg fatter. This channel helped me a lot on my diet days. Thank you!
I sprinkle some almond flour on the rolling pin and dough and it rolls effortlessly. No sticking. I also don't add as much water as you did. I think that added to the stickiness. These are great! 👍😊
I'm waiting for my coconut flour to arrive from Amazon so I can try these....😁....I can't remember where I saw it but you can also add mashed potato flavoring to the dough and it makes it taste even better. The company for the extract is called One On One Flavors. I simply MUST try it!
So glad you posted this..was looking forward to see your reaction to the taste test 😁
I made the version using almond flour and they were “heavenly”. I don’t own a rolling pin (lol) so I hand pressed the dough and perhaps it wasn’t as thin as her recipe called for, and used the fine ground almond flour. I found that they tasted more potato-ey, like a slightly thicker traditional fry and not overly crunchy. Still tasted fabulous with sugar-free ketchup and Cajun seasoning...
I saw someone post that instead of cutting them into “fries” that they added some garlic powder and Italian seasoning and left it rectangle for a “garlic bread”. I want to try this!
I’m wondering if the coconut version could be made into a churro of sorts with cinnamon and sweetener sprinkled on them. 🤔
Yes. I've made them. Yummm! As long as you haven't added garlic powder or something, just shake them up in a bag with cinnamon and erythritol. (I've made them the same size as the fries, and larger, but if they are too big they will not get done inside.)
They are very good with sweetener and cinnamon!
Only seeing the thumbnail, I thought it was going to be a video about keto churros. But I’ll take keto fries 🍟 too!! 👍
Try to use a big star shaped nozzle and cut them for portion control. Sounds freaking yummy.
@mona I thought that too. Then I was like these seem like the perfect “funnel cake” fries lol
I been telling ppl the almond flour version is so much better. And dipped in "ketchup and mayo" it taste just like a real fry. ESPECIALLY cooked in peanut oil
Cooking them in beef tallow makes them taste like the Mcdonalds fries from back in the day. So good!
I made the coconut flour & they don't taste at all like FFRIES & they got cold right away.
I just found your channel yesterday, and have been on the low carb/Keto thing for a bout 4 years now. I was eating potato FFs while watching this vid, because i hadn't found an alternative! I will definitely be trying both of these recipes.
"gonna be better in a big pot o' grease!" - YEP! Thanks for your patient tutorials, Wes! You are the BEST! XOXO - M
loved that too followed by that laugh lol
Happy to see you make this video Wes. I have watched both Heavenly Fan and Keto Focus' video. I was intrigued by Keto Focus' suggestion of potato extract (which I didn't even know was a thing). But my first thought was making up a batch of french fry seasoning to add to the dough. I used to enjoy (potato) seasoned fries way back in my preketo days 😋
So glad to see you show us this recipe. Heavenly Fan is great. I've followed you for a while on Facebook, so I will be watching for your reset posts.
I’m so excited!! I’ve been SEARCHING for a channel like this! Cant wait to try new recipes!
Thanks, Crystal! Welcome aboard! 🙂❤️
Stick with Wes Crystal, he does great on showing us recipes that are winners. Plus, he's just fun to watch❤️
What a send off for 2020. Wishing Wes and all his fans a healthy 2021. We all need it so badly. ❤️❤️❤️
So happy you are making these! 💛💛💛
First time seeing your channel and just have to say, omgosh YOU are a joy! I love your honesty and humor. New subscriber here!
Thank you so much, Kim! I appreciate the kind comment and the follow. Welcome aboard - make yourself at home! 🙂❤️
I've always used chopsticks when frying. Learned from my Japanese Mom. I developed a tree nut allergy this year and ordered sunflower flour/meal. I think I'll try this using that. Would you consider making a video using almond flour vs sunflower flour/meal in baking? Wishing you and yours a Happy New Year!
Made these Heavenly Fan ones with coconut flour but added also salt in the mixture for flavor and I also added Keto Focus suggestion of mashed potato extract (this flavoring smells funky AF but is amazing also in mashed cauliflower). Made a double batch weeks ago, ate the first batch with keto fried catfish and fried shrimp and froze the second batch and just cooked them from the freezer last night to go with big fat bacon cheese burgers. We love them!
ALL of that sounds delicious! I’ve used the One-On-One Flavors Cornbread flavoring with good results. Guess I need to try the potato, too! Thanks for sharing! ❤️
@@HighfalutinLowCarb how is one on one’s cornbread extract vs. Amoretti’s? I bought the Amoretti’s and I loooove it but oooweee it’s expensive!
The Amoretti has a fresh sweet corn flavor (think fresh creamed corn) and the OOO Cornbread flavor is more liked baked cornbread. I like both, but use the cornbread flavor more often. (Plus, lots cheaper as you said!)
Hi, Did you get the mashed potato extract online? Please can you share the link? I’ve checked Amazon uk,sainsburys and Tesco’s but can’t find them. Thanks in advance

Love this guy! Give kudos where Kudos are due and there aren't many others who would do that! Keep up the videos man we appreciate them
Thanks, Max! 🙂👍🏻
Thank you so much! I tried a tortilla presser and pressed it just till the thickness that I wanted and I had no problem.
I think I've watched at least six channels make these and I still haven't made them lol. I'll get around to it sometime.
It's fun to watch though.
It’s criminal how you still look so good if you have been lackadaisical!!! I’m joining your reset right now. Much love and Happy New Year!!
So wonderful to end the old year with you
Wishing you and your whole family a blessed New Year
Thank you as always for your kind words and continued support, Ursula! Happy New Year to you and yours! XOXO
Just made these today. Was a nice addition to my chicken I had for lunch. Love the channel
OMG will never have veggie fries again. I went on her website and praised her for bringing this recipe to our tables! And kudos to you for supporting her! I made the almond flour and they were the perfect addition to my veggie burger for lunch! Having slipped from LC over the holidays, this seemed to get me back where I need to be. All that crap I ate from T-day to Christmas gave me the worst heartburn I've experienced in years!! Keep the videos coming!!! Need the battles in our kitchens, not elsewhere!
I add salt, garlic, a little cayenne and parmesan cheese to the recipe. I sprinkle some parm. cheese on the cutting board to roll the fries out on. They come out tasting like seasoned french fries, soooo much better than the straight recipe. I prefer the coconut flour recipe. These are a game changer!
Yessss.. I have loved her videos. When I saw her do these my mind was blown. So glad you gave her credit, I noticed others did not. I love you sweetie, your face when you taste the food makes me get off my bottom and run to the kitchen..lol ❤️🙏🏻
I really enjoy watching your videos. You are humble and honest in your appraisals. And love that accent!
Love you Wes.... Thank you for crediting Fan from Heavenly Fan's Vegan Keto channel..... Looooooove you so much. Layla
You are my FAVE! It's always such a treat when you post a new video.
*It's fantastic to have a guilt-free version of this classic treat. Thanks for sharing this delicious and crispy recipe!*
Thanks for being honest, Wesley. I know a lot of us are struggling right now! I've always been a big fan!!! Keto on!
Spot on with the recommendations (salt in the recipe), I had mine with sugar free bbq sauce. Couldn't stop eating them.
Wes, I've been looking forward to your reaction to these fries and am so happy to see that they pass your taste test.
I make these using half almond flour and half coconut. Beautiful. Thank you Heavenly Fan and Hifal.... Going to try a sweet version with cinnamon, what's to lose?
Ive just made these, i made half the dough in to fries as is, the other half i mashed up some steamed celeriac (celery root) and steamed swede (rutabega) and mashed them both in to the dough, and then rolled and cut it in to thicker fries, like british chips/steak cut fries. They tasted very much like the real thing.
I really wanted to like these. I really did, but I couldn't eat a whole one. I am sorry cause they looked great! Maybe I will try them again. But I do like Heavenly Fan's ideas. She has a lot of cool recipes I can't wait to try!
How crazy is it that today for lunch (I live in France so it was 10 hours ago) I wanted to make them (I've already have, both versions) and looked at your channel to see if you did make them at some point, I don't know why, just to have your opinion! And 8 hours later you uploaded your video! That's really insane xD I prefer also the almond ones because I could feel too much the coconut flavor, even with seasoning. So today I tried mozza sticks and I failed miserably, maybe one day you can do a video on keto mozza sticks? Anyway, for the fries, I'll do a combination of both next time! Love your videos!
I've done these a buncha times and they are really good, definitely the best keto french fry out there. A variation with the dough I've done a few times was use half almond half lupin flour and added a bit of baking powder to the dough. rolled it into about a half inch thick log and cut them up like gnocchi. used a fork to make the grooves in them then boiled them. that was actually really good too.
Have you fried the fries made with al
One flour and lupin flour?? How’d they taste??
@@sharonmetzner1798 I havent tried it with just one type of flour. Would be worth seeing how they turn out though
Just watched your video, immediately made the almond version. AMAZING!!!!
This is a go-to for me on weekend dinners. Paired with a steak and salad... oh my!
Have you tried Lupin Flour?
"Tim Talks Cooking"made these & substituted Lupin Flour. I have yet to try this recipe, but l love Lupin Flour for coating fried chicken. I have not experimented much with it for other uses, but as part of a dredge for fried food, I've made it to the Promised Land.
Okay, I made these. First time as written, the were okay but not the full flavor profile I wanted. I made them a second time as a slightly larger batch (67g coconut flour, 4 tsp Xanthan gum, 3/4 c ground fresh parmesan, 10 tbsp hot water) and to that I added 1/2 tsp Knorr beef bouillon powder, 2 tbsp beef tallow, 1/4 tsp erythritol, and 20 drops of mashed potato extract in the water before adding. I did it all in the food processor then let it rest in a zipper bag as instructed. When I cut them, i tried to make them smaller so they were easier to handle and used 2 sets of tongs to work with them in the oil (combo of avocado and beef tallow) because they're really sticky until set. O...M...G... French Fries are back on the menu!!!
Oh no... I'm late to the game. Glad I caught this. Thanks to you and Fan. I'll definitely check her out.
French fried made with 😊Lupin flour is the best. It tastes very much like real French Fried. I have made French Fried with coconut and almond flour as well.
Love what you bring to us....There are a few of you I watch all the time....love it that you all give the credit where credit is due....love Heavenly Fan!! You too Wes...!! And Serious Keto and Keto Connect....
There's also someone that did this with Lupin Flour....I tried that and this hit it out of the park for me....just a suggestion that you might want to try. Let me know if you want the link and I will look for it and provide it to you. This gentleman also gave credit to Heavenly Fan as well. What a great community!! Blessings and happy new year!!
I made this today. Whoa!!! This really tasted like FRENCH FRIES!!! Yummy!!! Thanks for making this video 😊
I'm here to see if you were talking about Fan. I'm going to try her chips next.
I did both. I like the coconut flour version.
I used lupin flour very low carb and were fantastic
Great! Just getting into it for better health and naturally lowering my blood pressure. Will definitely try this recipe because I have those ingredients right now
I find a good mix by adding one Tbsp of ccnut flour to the almond flour mix. Also, if you fold in the sides of a piece of parchment to cover the dough, you can roll a rectangle really easily. It helps to use the parchment on a roll and cut your own size. Also, Parmesean cheese (1Tbsp) adds a nice flavor and crispiness. Adjust water as needed. Love your vids!
Thanks Wes, you have a great channel.
I needed 2 pieces of parchment paper to roll it out too!
They were great! I haven't tried the coconut flour ones yet.
Your channel always ROCKS!!!!!! Thank you for the effort.
I have found that if you just use the back of a spoon to spread the dough out to make a rectangle, it works much better. And sometimes I even wet the spoon in that hot water that I had on hand. Works beautifully!
After months (or years) of not eating french fries, any version of fries is great!! I think your taste buds change... most every food I treat myself to NEVER tastes as good as I remember!! I'll take a look at Thrive Market 😁. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve added cauliflower rice to the mix and have made awesome caulitots.
