Description
Crispy baked avocado fries with a golden panko coating and a creamy center make for a fun and satisfying snack or appetizer. This lighter alternative to fried foods delivers great texture and flavor without deep frying.
Ingredients
2 whole ripe avocados, peeled and sliced into wedges
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with the seasoning.
- Dredge each avocado wedge in flour, then dip into eggs, and coat with seasoned panko breadcrumbs.
- Place coated wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
- Drizzle lightly with olive oil.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Add cayenne or chili powder for a spicy kick.
Mix in grated parmesan with breadcrumbs for extra flavor.
Use crushed cornflakes for an extra crunchy coating.
Air fry at 400°F for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Reheat in the oven at 375°F to maintain crispiness.
Avoid freezing as texture may become mushy.
