Ingredients
This avocado fries recipe is fabulous because only 4 ingredients are required!
- Avocado
- Almond milk
- Almond meal
- Seasoning
I used cajun seasoning but any seasonings you’d like will work here!
How to make baked avocado fries
Start by simply cutting an avocado, peeling off the skin, and then cutting into wedges. Next just dip in some almond milk and last cover in almond meal mixed with cajun seasoning.
Place on a nonstick baking sheet and cook for 15 minutes.
That’s all there is to it people, this is a pretty fool-proof recipe!
How to pick an avocado for avocado fries
When selecting avocados for avocado fries, it’s best to find an avocado that’s firm, but every so slightly soft to the touch. If the avocado is too firm, peeling off the skin will be difficult. If the avocado is too soft, they will be hard to manage and fall apart when breading.
Spice variations for avocado fries
The cajun seasoning makes these avocado fries so delicious and seriously takes them to the next level! If cajun or spice is not your thing, I recommend Italian seasoning, some dill or rosemary, or just go with the basics: salt and pepper! However you decide to make them, your end result will be amazing.
Best dipping sauce for avocado fries
Now let’s talk about some dips. I’m all for creamy dips!
I made this dip with vegan mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and buffalo sauce (highly recommend!) If strict vegan, you can substitute the yogurt for a vegan variety.
These would also taste great with salsa, hummus, or guacamole? If that avocado overload? No such thing? Kidding, that may be overdoing it a tad.
