These vegan avocado fries have a crunchy, flavour packed coating and a creamy, center - no frying needed! They’re completely vegan, gluten-free, and nut-free, making them the perfect snack. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce!
Preheat your oven to 350F while you prep your ingredients.
Prepare your batter by mixing 1/2 tsp powdered garlic, tahini, water, and seasoning of choice. Mix until a smooth batter forms, adding additional water as needed.
In another bowl, mix together remaining 1/2 tsp powdered garlic, onion powder, cajun seasoning or seasoning of choice and salt.
Coat avocado slices in tahini mix, then coat in breadcrumb + seasoning mixture.
Bake on a nonstick baking sheet or parchment paper for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
Serve with hummus, salsa, dip of choice!
Notes
Some great seasoning mixes: Italian seasoning, pizza seasoning, poultry seasoning, taco seasoning, everything bagel seasoning.
If you’d like to bake these with a little drizzle of olive oil or avocado oil feel free to, but if you’d like to keep them oil free, I recommend a good nonstick baking sheet, or parchment paper.
Make sure you season both the “batter” and the “crumb” topping, in order to pack in the flavour.
I used gluten-free bread crumbs, (actually, I used this chickpea-based crumb), but if you aren’t allergic, feel free to use regular bread crumbs, you lucky duck!
Opt for ripe avocados that are firm but not too soft. Overripe avocados can be too mushy and may not hold their shape during coating and baking.
