Ingredients
2 medium avocados
½ c. almond flour
5 T. finely grated parmesan cheese
1 t. garlic powder
2 t. Italian seasoning
1 egg
2 t. water
Garlic Dipping Sauce:
½ c. mayonnaise

Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat or a piece of parchment paper.
-
Peel and slice each avocado in half. Cut each half into 6 wedges, rendering 12 wedges from each avocado.
-
In a shallow dish, mix almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water. Add salt and pepper to taste.
-
Dip each avocado wedge into the egg mixture, then place in the dish with the parmesan breading mixture. Using a spoon, toss the breading on top of the avocado, ensuring that the entire avocado wedge is nicely coated with breading mixture. Repeat with all 24 wedges.
-
Place wedges on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 6 minutes. Gently flip over and bake for 5-6 additional minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven. Cool on baking sheet 2-3 minutes.
-
While fries are cooling, combine mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, chopped parsley, salt and pepper to taste.
-
Serve avocado fries alongside the garlic dipping sauce. Enjoy!
