How do you make avocado fries in the air fryer? (step-by-step)
⭐ First, line up 3 shallow bowls with flour, then whisked egg, then seasoned bread crumbs,
⭐ Next, slice the avocados in half and remove the pit. Use a spoon to separate the meat from the skin, and cut into slices.
⭐ Then, dip each slice of avocado first in the flour, then in the egg, then into the panko breadcrumbs. Place the avocado slices in the basket of your air fryer in a single layer.
⭐ Finally, cook for about 4 minutes, flip the avocados, then cook for an additional 3 minutes, until panko is crispy and browned.
Preparation
Can you make air fryer avocado fries ahead of time?
These are really best enjoyed right away when they’re hot and fresh out of the air fryer. I don’t suggest making them ahead of time.
How can you tell when avocado fries are done air frying?
The fries are finished when the breading is toasty looking and browned to your liking. We typically find that about 7 minutes is perfect.
Storage and leftovers
How long do air fryer avocado fries last?
Leftover fries will keep in the refrigerator for about 2 days. Store in an airtight container for best results. Reheat in the air fryer to make the outsides crispy again.
Can you freeze air fried avocados?
Yes, place on a sheet pan in the freezer and then transfer fries to a sealed freezer safe container when they are fully frozen.
That said, they are best when cooked and enjoyed on the same day.
How to reheat leftover avocado fries in the air fryer
To reheat, pop the fries back in the air fryer for a few minutes at 350F to crisp them back up. Watch closely.

How to Make Avocado Fries (Air Fryer)
Air Fryer Avocado Fries
Ingredients
- 3 medium avocados ripe
- 1 cup breadcrumbs panko
- ½ cup flour all purpose
- 2 medium or large eggs + a splash of water
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lime
Instructions
- Create an assembly line with 3 shallow bowls. In the first bowl, place the ½ cup flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the two eggs with the splash of water. In the third bowl, combine the 1 cup panko breadcrumbs with all of the spices.
- Slice the avocados in half and remove the seed. Use a spoon to separate the meat from the skin, then cut each half lengthwise into 4 - 6 slices, about ½" thick.
- Dip each slice of avocado first in the flour, then in the scrambled egg wash, then into the panko breadcrumbs.
- Place the avocado slices in the basket of your air fryer. It's okay if they touch, but they should only be in a single layer. You may have to do this in batches.
- Cook at 400° F for 4 minutes, flip the avocados, then cook for an additional 3 minutes or until browned to your liking.
- Squeeze lime juice over fries immediately before serving, if desired.
