How to make avocado fries?
Step 1: Cut the avocado half, then take out the seed. The skin can then be peeled off by carefully inserting you’re a spoon between the skin and the flesh. Cut the avocados into wedges after cutting them in half lengthwise and place them flat side down. Add the eggs to a shallow dish, the flour to another dish, and the panko, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt to the last plate.
Step 2: Using flour first, then egg, and then panko, coat the avocado. Before frying and adding the food, let the air fryer reach a temperature of 390°F; most air fryers do this. If you have to do it manually, give the air fryer 4 minutes to warm up. Then place the avocado on the air fryer’s basket after spraying some olive oil on the avocado.
Step 3: Cook for 5-7 minutes at 360 degrees. When browned and crispy, turn the avocado over and cook for 5-7 minutes. Different air fryers produce varying outcomes regarding cooking time and the crispiness of the fries. Depending on the air fryer, you can require more time.

Why use an air fryer for cooking avocado fries?
Because air frying quickly crisps the “fry’s” exterior and makes it crunchy and browned without overcooking the interior and reducing the avocado to mush, it is ideal for making avocado fries.
It is also quick and straightforward. You can bread the second avocado during the first one air fries so that you are prepared to cook it when the first batch is finished. Remember that using a little oil spray to coat the air fryer basket will prevent sticking.
Pro tips:
Here are a few easy suggestions for making the best air fryer avocado fries. You’ll become addicted!
- First is how to choose the perfect avocado: Finding ripe avocados might be challenging. Choose avocados with a dark color and no blemishes. Squeeze the avocado’s top gently; if it yields slightly, it’s ready to eat. Avoid anything that is excessively solid or too mushy.
- Avocado fries cooked in an air fryer require much airflow to cook correctly. Keep your basket from being overstuffed, and leave plenty of room between each fry.
How to store air-fried avocado leftovers?
Your fries will only keep fresh for a day or two since avocados oxidize so quickly. Please keep it in the refrigerator in a zipper bag. I advise warming them through the air fryer for a few minutes to maintain their crispiness.
