How to Make Baked Avocado Fries
Directions:

Tips and Tricks
For this baked avocado fries recipe, the best results are achieved using ripe but firm avocados. Ripe fruit will not hold up to the baking process.
It’s also a good idea to add the parmesan cheese and almond flour to a food processor to ensure they are mixed up well and evenly.
Avocados can be slightly bitter when cooked, so drizzle some lemon juice on them before dipping them in the egg mixture.
After dipping avocado in egg wash, shake off excess egg wash so the breading doesn’t get soggy.
These can also be prepared in the air fryer! Lay them in the basket (no overlapping) and cook at 375° F for 10 minutes or until the desired crispness is achieved.
