Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 large or 4 small avocados, sliced into ½ inch slices
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 tsp chili powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- Cooking spray or oil for spraying
Instructions
- Prepare the Flour Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the flour, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
- Prepare the Egg and Breadcrumbs: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. In a third bowl, place the panko bread crumbs ready for coating.
- Coat the Avocado Slices: Take each avocado slice and first dip it completely in the flour mixture, ensuring full coverage. Then dip it into the beaten egg, and finally press it into the panko bread crumbs so they adhere well. Repeat for all slices. Lightly spray both sides of each coated slice with oil to promote crispiness.
- Air Fry the Avocado Fries: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the avocado slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overlapping. Cook for about 7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the coating is golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Remove the avocado fries from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Ensure avocado slices are firm to prevent them from becoming mushy while cooking.
- Adjust chili powder to your preferred heat level.
- Use cooking spray liberally for extra crispiness in air fryer.
- Serve with dips like ranch, spicy mayo, or salsa for enhanced flavor.
- Best served fresh to maintain crispiness.
