I love avocados and regularly enjoy the fruit in various forms, from egg cups, dips to salsas.

These avocado fries, however, are my current addiction. I just can’t get enough of how every bite of the mock fries is a delightful combo of buttery, creamy, and crispy!

They’re super easy to make, a huge batch is just a matter of minutes! They’re baked, not fried, so you get amazing flavor and crunch without the extra work and calories.

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce such as Ranch dressing, sweet and sour sauce, or Thousand Island, but I especially love them with campfire sauce which is basically 2 parts mayo plus 1 part BBQ sauce.

Cooking tips

  • For best texture, use ripe but FIRM avocados.
  • To keep the avocados from browning quickly, lightly spritz with lemon juice before coating in breadcrumbs.
  • I like to use egg whites instead of whole eggs for a lighter coating. Make sure to whisk well until frothy.
  • Spray the breaded avocados with nonstick cooking spray or drizzle with melted butter to help the breading brown in the oven.
  • To make gluten-free, swap the flour with cornstarch and the Panko breadcrumbs with crushed pork rinds.
  • To make keto-friendly, omit the flour, coat in the egg whites, and dredge in crushed pork rinds.
  • I added Parmesan cheese to the breading for another layer of flavor but feel free to season the breading with your favorite spice blends such as curry powder, paprika, chili powder, or dried Italian herbs.

One thing to note, these avocado appetizers need to be enjoyed hot and fresh from the oven as they tend to lose crispness over time. Not that it would be a problem, these babies fly into eager mouths like crazy!
