Variations & Tips
– For the gluten-sensitive bunch in your house, you can easily substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend and use gluten-free panko or crushed cornflakes.
– Toss up the flavor by adding some grated Parmesan or shredded cheddar to the breadcrumb mixture for a cheesy twist.
– If your kiddos are all about spice, bring in a dash of cayenne pepper or your favorite seasoning blend to the mix.
– For a healthier option, you can skip the flour and double up on the egg wash before breading. This gives you a lighter crust but still keeps that crunch we all love.
– Always remember to let those nuggets cool down a smidge before calling the young’uns in – we don’t want any burnt tongues!
