Getting Started
- For air-frying, select avocados that are firm but ripe. Overripe avocados will become mushy, while firm ones hold their shape and develop a desirable texture.
- When breading avocado for fries or bites, ensure an even, thin coating. Use a dairy-free binder like plant-based milk or aquafaba, followed by almond flour or dairy-free panko for maximum crispness.
- Air circulation is crucial for even cooking and crisping. Cook avocado in a single layer, in batches if necessary, to prevent steaming and ensure a golden finish.
- A light spray of high-heat oil (like avocado oil) before air frying helps achieve a crispy exterior and prevents sticking, without adding excessive fat. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 8-12 minutes, flipping halfway.
