Preheat oven to 400°F/ 200°C
Put asparagus in a flat pan (you can use a bowl but they may not lay flat) and mix with maple syrup, oil if using and smoked paprika. Mix to fully coat.
Place almond flour, breadcrumbs, cornmeal, salt and pepper in another bowl or pan and mix to combine.
One by one, put asparagus in the dry ingredient mix and toss to coat well. You can also add the dry coating in a plastic bag, place all the asparagus inside and shake to coat. This method is quicker but may not coat them as well.
Place the coated asparagus on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with your favorite dip.
