These Baked Avocado Fries Are Amazing, y’all!

This is a recipe for keto-friendly baked avocado fries. They are just as crispy and salty as regular French fries, but without all the carbs. They are also easy to make and very satisfying.

Ingredients Overview

Avocados

Avocados are a great ingredient for this recipe because they are low in carbs and high in healthy fats. They also have a creamy texture that pairs well with the crispy almond flour coating.

Tip: Best results are achieved using ripe, but firm avocados in this recipe. Riper fruit will not hold up to the baking process. 

Almond Flour

Almond flour is a great ingredient for this recipe because it is low in carbs and high in healthy fats. It also has a creamy texture that pairs well with the crispy almond flour coating.

Parmesan Cheese

Parmesan cheese is a great ingredient for this recipe because it is high in protein and low in carbs. It also has a strong flavor that pairs well with the garlic and Italian seasoning.

Garlic Powder, Italian Seasoning and Salt and Pepper

Garlic powder, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper are all great ingredients for this recipe because they add flavor without adding any carbs.

Egg

The egg is a necessary ingredient for this recipe because it helps the almond flour to stick to the avocado slices.
