These crispy baked avocado fries are a wholesome yet indulgent snack, combining creamy avocado with a crunchy seasoned coating. Perfect for any occasion!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe avocados (firm but ripe)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or nutritional yeast for vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
  2. Slice the avocados in half, remove the pit, and peel the skin. Cut each half into thick wedges (about 4-6 per half).
  3. Set up your breading station: In one bowl, add the flour. In the second bowl, beat the eggs. In the third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Dip each avocado wedge first into the flour, coating it evenly. Then dip it into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off. Finally, roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks.
  5. Place the coated avocado slices on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
  6. Lightly spray the avocado fries with cooking spray or drizzle with a small amount of oil. This helps them crisp up beautifully.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, turning halfway through, until the coating is golden brown and crispy.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the fries cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

For extra crispiness, use a wire rack on the baking sheet. Ensure avocados are ripe but firm to avoid mushiness. Customize the seasoning or try variations like gluten-free or vegan options.
