Tried these tonight with the family. Mostly positive reaction from the kids; I loved em! I found the best way to cook them, and I tried all the above methods, was to mix the flour together with the shrimp et al, then just spoon a portion onto the already hot and oiled skillet and flatten them out to about 3/4 of an inch. Cook about 3 or 4 minutes on each side and they’re perfect.

Nice Amataurus! If you want the more crispy sides like you would get from browning on each side try baking in a muffin pan. You won’t have to cook it as long. This also works well for having leftover portions that are perfect for lunch and dinner.

To troubleshoot the ‘goupie-ness’ I just put the entire mixture in to a brownie/cake pan and cook it in the oven @ 375 degrees until it’s done – takes about 35-45 minutes, depending on how deep the pan and your oven. We love them!

I made this recipe tonight and it was just delicious. I added some finely diced cremini mushrooms and had to use almond meal because it was all I could find. I just combined the almond meal into the shrimp mixture before making the patties and sauteing on low heat. I will continue my search for the almond flour, but for now, I have a wonderful, flavorful recipe that I will always look forward to eating.

I still finely chopped the shrimp but did add a little almond flour into the mix. The patties are pretty much mush before you cook them. I made them in my hands, spooned some almond flour on top, flipped them onto a cutting board and spooned the four on that side. You can spatula the mush-patty into the frying pan and when it is cooked it turns out solid. Very, very tasty recipe, too, so thanks for this one!

To make the patties: I cut the shrimp in larger pieces and then I add some extra almond flour until the patty thickens. It works wonderfully and I love love love this recipe! Whenever I have a friend that questions the Paleo lifestyle, I bring them some shrimp patties and convince them that it can be quite yummi.

I don’t even bother making the patty now – I’ll mix everything up as directed and throw it into the skillet to make a shrimp/veggie hash. Tastes delicious and saves some time.

I am not exactly a cook, but now that I found out I have to eat gluten and dairy free I have to learn to cook some things that are tasty and healthy in order to 1) get healthy and 2) to maintain my health. I tried this recipe last night, it has a very nice flavor, but I could not get the ingredients to form a nice patty. It was very liquidy, which made it difficult to coat with the almond flour. Any suggestions, or ideas on what I did or could do better in the future?
