  • Have to admit, I’ve never considered adding coconut to the breadcrumbs for a schnitzel. Not sure how it would go down here

  • Coconut crumbles are lovely, I add some gluten free breadcrumbs and often use it to give broccoli and cauliflower a crumble coating and then deep fry it. My kids love it
