Gluten-Free Avocado fries:
Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 2 large Hass Avocados, sliced into strips
- 3/4 cups of Gluten Free Panko
- 1 tbsp of Ancho Chile Powder
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tsp of lime juice
- Avocado Oil Spray
Directions:
- Preheat your Air Fryer to 390 degrees.
- In one bowl, mix together the egg and the lime juice
- In another bowl mix together the Gluten Free Panko and the Ancho Chile Powder
- Take one slice of avocado, dip into the egg mixture, making sure to evenly coat all sides of the avocado strip.
- Once coated dip the avocado strip into the Gluten Free Panko mixture, making sure to coat all sides evenly
- Place them on a separate plate and repeat this process until all the strips are coated
- Use the Avocado Oil spray to evenly coat both sides of the avocado and place them into the air fryer basket. You might have to do a couple of batches because you don't want to overcrowd the fries as they will stick together
- Cook in the air fryer at 390 degrees for 4 minutes, then flip the avocado fries over and cook for an additional 4 minutes
- Once they are all finished cooking, grab a dipping sauce and enjoy!
