Copycat Disneyland Fried Pickles

Copycat Disneyland Fried Pickles

Until we enjoyed a plate of these at the Disneyland Carnation Cafe, I was NOT a Fried Pickle fan! Most places fry small slices and to me, it just ends up tasting like fried batter with a hint of pickle. The Carnation Cafe uses spears, this combination ends up giving you more pickle to batter ratio. I enjoy the lightness that their batter brings & the saltiness from the parmesan cheese! So, get ready for the best Copycat Disneyland Fried Pickles!

Since we don’t live close to Disneyland, I had to come up with a recipe that can satisfy my craving when a Disneyland vacation is not on the horizon! I hope you make these and enjoy them!

  • for a more even coverage, blend the panko bread crumbs and parmesan cheese together to make them more cohesive.

FAQ for the best Copycat Disneyland Fried Pickles

  1. Are fried pickles Keto? This exact recipe is not, as I did a copycat recipe for Carnation Cafe at Disneyland. But you could increase the parmesan cheese and swap the panko for ground pork rinds and you’d have a tasty alternative.
  2. Are fried pickles vegan? No, these have parmesan cheese and eggs in the recipe, but you can leave them out and substitute those for vegan items and you’d be good to go!
  3. Do fried pickles have dairy? No, these have parmesan cheese in the recipe, but you can leave them out and the recipe would be just fine with out it. You might want to season the panko with salt though as you will miss that without the parmesan cheese.
  4. How to reheat fried pickles? Don’t do it! LOL, but if you must… maybe broil them in the oven for a few minutes?

    I’ve neglected my little food blog and social me I’ve neglected my little food blog and social media accounts for so long. Besides going through a couple years of having babies. Building a home, selling a home having another baby, moving etc, I’ve also maybe never felt like the name I chose out of desperation for a food blog name really fit with what I wanted to post about or about me. I’ve been really trying to figure out what I want to share and how to share it and give the best value to people. I’ve always loved gardening, loved canning and preserving food, I love teaching my kids to cook and love food, i love all sorts of cuisine and I love throwing dinner parties. With our new home I now have a place I can entertainer more, a prettier kitchen to photograph and film in, a very large garden with space to have an outdoor dining table to literally eat Farm to Table. I want to focus my blog on basically all of that. Teaching and learning more gardening techniques, learning more about food preservation, entertaining year round and cooking with my kids. 

I’d love YOUR input in what I should change the name to… please drop your ideas below. If I pick yours I’ll make you some caramels or smoked salsa or something I can mail you if you aren’t local to me. 

Thank you! #newbrand #farmtotable #cookingwithkids #foodpreservation #dinnerparties #helpme

Living here we will never have to worry about getting pinched for not having green! 🤣

The exterior color scheme has had my stomach in knots ever since we chose it. I knew the other homes on our street were all going to be white and so our home would look drastically different. I wasn’t sure how it would all turn out, but I LOVE IT 😍! One day we’d love to do copper gutters and coordinating fascia and soffits. But I even love the white. 

We just had our final walk through before our final inspection!! I can’t believe the day has come that we finally will be moving in! March 24th cannot come fast enough!

While visiting CA my good friend @amberrasberry was so kind to squeeze us in and take some awesome family photos at the place where @shields_word and I had our engagement photos taken over 8 years ago @applehillofficial @highhillranch_applehill !

I’m grateful that these photos truly capture my children’s personalities and this wonderful stage of life we are currently in! @amberrasphotography did a fantastic job and I’m so grateful for her and her talents!

Tonight I made us a spicy salmon poke bowl with sushi rice, pickled carrots, cabbage, avocado, edamame and cucumbers. I made the kids a honey glazed pan seared salmon and they ate all the same items in our bowl. 

Do you have a favorite salmon recipe? I have a few but would love to try more! Let me know yours below👇🏼!!

Our f#very first fruiting in our peach tree and our last time we will get to enjoy peaches from this tree as we are moving in a few months! So glad we got to enjoy the fruits of our labor with this tree! Also, if you have small children and plan to harvest while pregnant, I HIGHLY recommend planting an “easy pick” pruned peach tree! I only needed a ladder for like 20 peaches max. My kids were able to pick and reach most of them! #parentwin
