Ingredients
- 2 firm, but ripe Avocados
- 2/3 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
- the juice of half a lemon
- a small handful fresh parsley, chopped finely
- salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F.
- Cut avocado in half and remove seed, then cut into desired length fries.
- Panko breadcrumbs or almond flour are the best choice for coating avocado fries because they create a crispy outer layer. If you’re using panko breadcrumbs, make sure to dip each fry in the egg wash before frying it so that all sides can be coated with an even amount of egg mixture.
- Dip each fry into the egg wash mixture for a few seconds to fully coat it before dipping them in panko breadcrumbs or almond flour (optional). Lay coated pieces onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 15 minutes until golden brown on the outside but still soft on the inside.
- It’s important that you slice the avocados into even, thin pieces so they cook evenly throughout. A mandoline slicer is a great option for this job because it can produce clean and uniform cuts with minimal effort on your end. Be sure not to over-slice the pieces of avocado or they will be too small when baked, which won’t create enough surface area for breading and frying! Lay out all slices onto parchment paper lined cookie sheet before baking them at 400 degrees Fahrenheit until crispy golden brown outside and soft inside (about 15 minutes).
