Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup panko breadcrumbs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for a spicy kick)

2 large eggs

1 tablespoon water

Salt and black pepper to taste

Olive oil spray (or cooking oil of your choice)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and crispiness.

    Prepare the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh. Cut each avocado half into wedges or fries, about 1/2 inch thick.

      Set up the Breading Station: In one bowl, whisk together the eggs and water to create an egg wash. In a separate bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper.

        Coat the Avocados: Dip each avocado fry into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, and then dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

          Arrange and Spray: Place the breaded avocado fries on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil to ensure they become crispy in the oven.

            Bake: Bake the fries in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through for even cooking.

              Serve: Remove them from the oven and let cool for a minute. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as spicy ranch or aioli.
