I adapted a recipe for baked avocado fries from baked-in.com to suit grain-free, gluten-free and Paleo lifestyles. It turned out deliciously!
INGREDIENTS:
- 3 ripe (but not overripe) avocados
- ½ cup coconut flour
- 2 farm fresh eggs
- 1½ cups shredded coconut
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- Coconut oil
PREPARATION:
- Preheat oven to 450° F. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on the sheet. Set aside.
- Slice avocados lengthwise – for three avocados, you’ll get 20-22 fries.
- Set up three bowls in an “assembly line” .. In the first bowl, combine the ½ cup of coconut flour with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Crack the eggs into the middle bowl and beat lightly.
- In the last bowl, combine about 1 tbsp worth of coconut oil and the 1½ cups shredded coconut and mix with your fingers to coat.
- Dredge each avocado slice through the flour, and then the beaten egg. Coat thoroughly with the shredded coconut mixture and place on the wire rack lightly coated w/ some additional coconut oil.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. Cool for about ten minutes and serve with your dipping sauce of your choice.
