Gluten-Free/Paleo Avocado Fries

Avocado Fries 3


I am personally not Gluten-Free or on the Paleo diet but I thought I would provide this version of the recipe for all of those who are :)

Avocado Fries

3 Avocados

Coconut Oil for frying 

1 bag of Almond Meal/Flour

3 Eggs, beaten

1 cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes

Salt to taste

Set up two separate bowls. One with almond/coconut mixture/salt to taste - don't be shy (I don't give amounts because you just need enough mixture to cover all of the avocado slices) and one with your 3 beaten eggs.

Cut the avocados in half and then slice them vertically into 4 inch by 1 inch wedges. Set them aside.

Heat the coconut oil in a frying pan, be sure to add enough so that it is 3 to 4 inches deep.

Drop each avocado piece in first your egg mixture and next in your almond/coconut mixture. Place them in the hot oil and fry them for only about 15-30 seconds per side (keep a keen eye on them - they tend to brown very quickly depending on how hot your pan is).

Remove the avocado fries from your pan with tongs and set them on a plate preferably lined with paper towels, to absorb the excess oil. Enjoy and serve with your favorite dipping sauce!!

  1. I'm originally from Washington state and had a hard time unsweetened coconut is hard to find out there. I was super stoked to find some at Fresh Market when I first moved to Virginia. If there are any readers who are searching for some with no such luck or access Fresh Market, you can now order smaller quantities from Amazon!
