Ingredients

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and peel. Slice each half into 8 wedges, depending on size, ensuring they're thick enough to hold up during cooking.
    2 ripe avocados
  • Set up three separate bowls. Add flour to the first shallow bowl. Pour the soy milk into another shallow bowl. Combine the panko breadcrumbs with salt and pepper in a third shallow bowl.
    ½ cup unsweetened soy milk, ½ cup panko breadcrumbs, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, Salt, Pepper
  • Coat each avocado slice in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip next into the soy milk, ensuring full coverage.
  • Finally, coat thoroughly with the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Place the breaded avocado slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overlap. Depending on the air fryer size, you may need to cook in batches.
  • Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crisping.
  • Enjoy the avocado fries immediately while hot and crispy, with your choice of dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Choosing the Right Avocados: I like to pick ripe but firm avocados to ensure they hold their shape during cooking. Overripe avocados tend to turn mushy.
  • Gluten-Free Option: If you need a gluten-free version, simply swap the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. The panko breadcrumbs can also be found in gluten-free varieties.
  • Coating Techniques: For an even coating, press the panko breadcrumbs firmly onto the avocado slices. This ensures they stick well and get that perfect crisp.
  • Cooking in Batches: Don’t overcrowd the air fryer. Cook the fries in a single layer to ensure even cooking and maximum crispiness. If you have a smaller air fryer, cook in batches.
  • Flipping Tips: Flip the avocado slices halfway through the cooking time. This step is crucial for achieving an even golden brown on all sides.
  • Seasoning Ideas: Feel free to get creative with your seasoning. Add garlic powder, paprika, or even a bit of chili powder to the panko mixture for extra flavor.
