Ingredients
Scale
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup gluten free yellow cornmeal
1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup all purpose gluten free flour, I used Better Batter
3 medium sized, firm green tomatoes, cut into 1/3-inch-thick
In a shallow dish combine the cornmeal, baking powder, salt, pepper and 1/4 cup of the gluten free flour. Dredge the tomato slices in the remaining 1/2 cup of gluten free flour; dip in the egg mixture, and dredge in the cornmeal mixture.
Pour the oil to a depth of 1/2 inch in a large cast iron skillet. Heat the oil to 350°F over medium-high heat. Drop the tomatoes, in batches, into hot oil and cook for 2 minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle hot tomatoes with sea salt to taste.
