Avocado Fries Recipe

Avocado fries are a fun, crispy, and healthy alternative to traditional fries. The creamy, rich texture of the avocado contrasts beautifully with the crunchy, golden breadcrumb coating. They’re perfect as a snack, appetizer, or side dish and can be served with a variety of dips, such as ranch dressing, spicy mayo, or guacamole.

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch)
  • 1/2 cup flour (all-purpose)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Olive oil spray or vegetable oil for frying
  • Optional: Ranch dressing, sriracha mayo, or ketchup for dipping

Direction

  1. Prepare the Avocados:
    Start by cutting the avocados in half and removing the pit. Use a spoon to scoop the avocado flesh out of the skin, then slice the avocado into thick wedges (about 6-8 pieces per avocado).

  2. Set Up the Breading Station:
    Set up three shallow bowls:

    • Bowl 1: Place the flour in the first bowl.
    • Bowl 2: Beat the eggs in the second bowl.
    • Bowl 3: Combine the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in the third bowl.
  3. Coat the Avocado Wedges:
    Dip each avocado wedge first into the flour, coating it lightly. Then dip it into the beaten egg, followed by the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring that the avocado is well-coated with breadcrumbs.

  4. Chill (Optional):
    For extra crispiness, place the breaded avocado fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. This helps the coating set and prevents it from falling off during frying.

  5. Fry or Bake:
    For Frying: Heat about 1 inch of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot (you can test it by dropping in a breadcrumb – it should sizzle), carefully place the breaded avocado fries in the pan. Fry them in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

    For Baking: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the breaded avocado fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray them with olive oil spray. Bake for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.

  6. Serve:
    Arrange the crispy avocado fries on a serving platter. Serve with your choice of dipping sauces like ranch dressing, spicy mayo, or ketchup.

Tips:

  • Baking Option: If you prefer to bake the avocado fries, make sure to spray the fries with oil for a crispy texture.
  • Extra Flavor: Add grated parmesan to the breadcrumb mixture for a cheesy twist.
  • Chilling: Chilling the fries helps the breading to stick better, giving you a crispier result when frying.
