Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 large eggs

1 cup panko breadcrumbs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Cooking spray or oil for frying

Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish (optional)

Dipping sauce of your choice (e.g., ranch, sriracha mayo)

Instructions
 

Prep the Avocados: Begin by cutting the avocados in half lengthwise. Gently remove the pit and use a spoon to scoop out the flesh without breaking the skin. Cut each half into wedges or ‘fries’, leaving the skin intact as it makes them easier to handle.

    Set Up the Breading Station: Prepare a breading station using three bowls. In the first bowl, place the all-purpose flour. Whisk the eggs together until they are smooth and uniform in the second bowl. For the third bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

      Bread the Avocado Wedges: Take one avocado slice and first dredge it in the flour, making sure it is completely coated. Next, dip it into the whisked eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat it in the panko-Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating adheres well. Repeat this process for all avocado slices.

        Fry the Avocado Fries: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the breaded avocado fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or drizzle with a bit of oil to enhance crispiness.

          Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. Halfway through the cooking time, flip the fries to ensure an even crispiness. Remove them once they are golden brown and deliciously crispy.

            Serve: Allow the fries to cool slightly before serving. For a pop of color and freshness, garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro if desired. Enjoy these crispy delights while warm, paired with your favorite dipping sauce for a delightful snack or appetizer!
