Avocado Fries- a new adventure!

Another Pinterest find :) These. are. delicious. Here's the recipe and some better pictures. It calls for a cookie sheet, which I didn't have, so I just crumpled up tin foil a bit and sprayed a little cooking spray to keep the fries from sticking and allow the heat to get to them evenly. It worked :)

Ingredients:
1/4 cup flour
1 tsp kosher salt
2 large eggs, beaten
1 1/4 cups panko crumbs (Japanese bread crumbs)
2 firm-ripe medium avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced into 1/2-in. wedges
Grated parmesan for serving (optional)

Just:
Preheat oven to 450.

Coat avocado slices in the flour, then egg, then panko. Spread on a cooling rack that has been sprayed with non-stick spray, then place on a cookie sheet. Spray/lightly coat the top of the wedges with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, then bake for about 20 minutes at 450, or until they are golden brown (I turned my oven up to 500 for the last 5 minutes).

Review: Awesome :) These would be great dipped in a little sour cream or just on their own. Squeezing a little lemon juice on them would also be a lip-puckering good time. Enjoy! Again, sorry for my lame pics, but the site has better ones!

  1. These look yummy, I love avocado! Food photography tip... get nice and close, like awkwardly close to the food.
