How to Make Crispy Fried Pickles
1. Prep the Pickles
-
Drain your dill pickle chips and place them on paper towels.
-
Pat them dry completely to help the coating stick better.
2. Coat the Pickles
-
Set up a breading station with one bowl of beaten eggs and another of breadcrumbs.
-
Dip each pickle chip in the egg, then coat evenly in breadcrumbs.
-
For extra crunch, repeat the process for a double layer.
3. Fry or Bake
-
Air Fryer or Oven: Place the coated pickles on a tray sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Spray the tops of the pickles lightly too.

Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for about 8–10 minutes.
-
Oven bake at 425°F (220°C) for 12–15 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
-

Deep Frying: Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) and fry in small batches for 2–3 minutes until golden. Drain on paper towels.
