Baked Crumbed Lamb Chops
Who doesn’t like a crumbed chop?! These healthier crumbed chops are low effort - no four, milk or egg needed. Instead brush each chop with warm apple & mint jelly and press into seasoned bread crumbs. That’s it. Then bake in the oven and let the lambs natural fat do all the work! The result is golden and crisp chops with a mildly sweet and just a little tart flavour. Delicious.

Hints and tips
Make it gluten free - Use gluten free bread crumbs - these are the brands I suggest Woolworths or Kook A Krumb
Bread crumbs - This recipe works best with finer bread crumbs rather than panko. They cover the chops more evenly and less likely to fall off.
Serving suggestion - Serve chops with this White Bean Sumac Salad & oven roasted wedges. Extra dollops of apple & mint jelly and a little natural yogurt are essential!
Portion size - Serves 2-4 people depending on side dishes served with them.
Storage - Store in the fridge for 3 days. Suitable for freezing both before and after cooked.
