Crispy Keto Parmesan Crusted Avocado Fries
If you are missing the satisfying crunch of a french fry on your keto journey, these Parmesan Crusted Avocado Fries are the ultimate game-changer. Imagine biting into a perfectly seasoned, golden-brown crust that gives way to the warm, buttery creaminess of ripe avocado. It is a texture contrast that rivals any potato wedge! Not only is this snack undeniably delicious, but it is also a nutritional powerhouse. Avocados are loaded with heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, potassium, and fiber, keeping you satiated without the insulin spike. By swapping breadcrumbs for a savory blend of almond flour and sharp Parmesan cheese, we create a coating that gets incredibly crispy in the oven or air fryer. Whether you need a crowd-pleasing appetizer for game day or a decadent side dish for burger night, these low-carb fries deliver high-fat satisfaction with minimal net carbs.
The Masterplan
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place a wire rack on top of the sheet for maximum crispiness.
Slice the avocados in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and carefully peel off the skin. Slice each half into 4-5 wedges.
Prepare your dredging station: In one shallow bowl, beat the egg. In a second shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Dip each avocado wedge into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, then press it firmly into the Parmesan-almond mixture to coat all sides evenly.
Place the coated wedges on the prepared wire rack. Space them out so they do not touch.
Lightly spray the tops of the fries with avocado oil cooking spray to help them brown.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and crispy. Let them cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the crust to set.
Serve warm with a side of sugar-free ranch or spicy mayo.
