Set your oven to 425°. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Take your cod fillet out of packaging and pat dry. Lay out the fish and cut into strips. Sprinkle salt over fish. Let fish rest while you prep the breading.

Grab 3 bowls. (1) In the first bowl, mix together almond flour, salt, and pepper. (2) In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs. (3) And in the third bowl, pour the panko, parmesan and onion powder.

Take a piece of cod and dredge it in the bowl of flour mix, coating all sides. Then dip the piece fully in the egg mix. Finally, roll the piece around in the panko mix until fully coated. Transfer cod to baking sheet. Repeat until all the fish is coated.

Bake for 12-13 mins. Fish should be opaque (not clear) and internal temp should be 145°F.
