Good Recipe for Breading for Frying Stuff?

Options
I can't seem to find one on the recipe group and I don't have time to search online for one...

Anyone have a simple recipe for an all purpose breading? I have both almond flour and coconut flour that I can use...I'm thinking about making some fried yellow squash tonight (yum!)

Thanks in advance!

    I use soy flour...it tends to burn, so fry at slightly lower heat (ex. cook at a 4 instead of a 5), but other than that it's just the same, dip, bread, fry...

    I used Carbquick. Add whatever seasonings you like to the carbquick; egg wash, breading, egg, breading. If your meat is really thick either pound it out or cook til the breading is brown, then bake the meat on a wire rack on a baking sheet another 10-15 minutes until done at about 400 degrees. The carbquick browns fast in the fryer but keeping it on a wire rack keeps it crusty and doesn't let it mush up! I use the left over breading and some of the oil I used to make a country gravy when I'm making country fried steak or chicken.

    I used Parmesan for a chicken coating that turned out awesome.

    Pork rinds are a great breading. Use an egg wash first.

    I used parmesan and pepper after dipping in egg. I also used a mixture of half parmesan and half pork skins. Both are delicious, but I preferred the taste of the plain parmesan.
