There is nothing better than Avocado Fries Air Fryer! They are so, so good! So, if you have been looking for an easy (but healthy) recipe look no further!

Air Fryer Avocado Fries is a great and healthy alternative to french fries. My husband and kids went crazy for them, as did I, as I was quite convinced that I would not have any for dinner because I kept eating them.

I initially saw these at Whole Foods. I thought this would be a great recipe to make in the air fryer, plus I was not going to pay over $10.00 for a box of “french fries.”

These are so easy to make. The best advice that I would offer is that you need to get really firm Avocados because they hold their shape better during the cutting and breading phases.

If you are looking for even more easy Air Fryer Appetizer Recipes, some of my favorites are AIR FRYER LOW-CARB (KETO) EVERYTHING BAGEL ZUCCHINI CHIPS, AIR FRYER TYSON CRISPY CHICKEN STRIPS, and AIR FRYER BACON WRAPPED SCALLOPS and AIR FRYER PIZZA POCKETS.

What Are Avocado French Fries?

If you have never had a batch of Avocado Fries, they are going to really surprise you. They are made with ripe avocados and then breaded with panko or traditional bread crumbs and seasoned with some seasonings.

They are then air fried up, where they turn golden brown. The exterior is crispy, while the inside is creamy and delicious!

You will soon find that there is nothing better than a plate of avocado chips air fryer!

How To Make Fried Avocado In Air Fryer

STEP ONE: Start by selecting firm avocados from the supermarket. The harder they are, the better they will come out.

STEP TWO: Then slice the avocados in half. Then slice them into wedges that resemble french fries.

STEP THREE: Dip them first into flour, salt, and black pepper. (In one bowl) In another bowl, mix 1 egg and 2 tablespoons of water, and beat well. In another bowl, place the panko bread crumbs.

STEP FOUR: Then dip the avocado french fries into the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and then the panko crumbs. As you bread them, place them into the air fryer basket.

STEP FIVE: Spray the avocado french fries, which are in the air fryer basket, with olive oil.

STEP SIX: Set the time to 370 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 5 minutes. After the time is up, flip them, and spray again. Set the time for another 4 minutes

STEP SEVEN: Remove them from the air fryer basket, plate, serve, and enjoy!

Pro Tips:

What Avacados To Air Fry: For the best avocado fries, you need to start with slightly under-ripe avocados.
Why Not Air Fry Ripe Avocados? Using ripe avocados will make your avocado fries mushy after you air fry them.
Crowding: Do not crowd your air fryer basket. This Air Fryer Avocado French Fries batch needs the heat to really crisp up the edges of the fries.
Spraying: Spray your basket or use parchment paper to line your basket so the Air Fryer Avocado French Fries do not stick to the basket.
Crispy Avacado Chips: If you want them really crispy, generously spray them with cooking spray, which will help the coating get crispy.

Why Air Fry Avocado?

The real reason is that they get amazingly crisp and delicious!

And they are so good! First, you get the taste of deep-frying without all of the added fat. Then, with a few sprays of high-heat oil, you get a delicious and healthy batch of Avocado Fries or Avocado Chips!

How to Bake Avocado Fries

If you want to use your oven to make a great batch of Avocado Fries, the recipe will work the same. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F, and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.

What to Serve With Avocado Fries

This is a great appetizer, but you can also make them a healthy side dish to go with any meal!

I usually serve these with a great homemade ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing. But other options are GREEK YOGURT BBQ SAUCE and CILANTRO-LIME SOUR CREAM CREMA.

Are Avocado Fries Healthy?

Yes, this is such a healthy way to make these avocado fries. Without a lot of oil, they are so healthy. Avocados are low in calories but high in fiber and have a significant number of health properties, including:

High in vitamin C, E, K, and B-6.
High in riboflavin, niacin, folate, magnesium, and potassium. Avocados also include lutein, beta-carotene, and omega-3 fatty acids.
Great for vision
Osteoprois prevention
