Insanely delicious and perfect for dipping, these fried avocado slices are the best appetizer choice! You’re going to love their crispy, golden panko shell and buttery, creamy center. Avocados are one of my favorite things to have in the kitchen and there are so many tasty ways to use them!

Deep-Fried Avocado Wedges
If you’re an avocado lover like me, then you’re in for a treat! Fried avocado is one of my new favorite things to snack on and has always been a favorite wherever it goes. This recipe starts with sliced avocados that are battered and deep-fried for maximum crispy deliciousness. The golden panko shell is the perfect contrast to the creamy umami center. It only takes a couple of minutes for these bad boys to cook up, leaving you with a tasty, dippable appetizer that everyone will go crazy over. They’re amazing on their own but even better when you serve them with your favorite dips! (You can also add your fried avocado to tacos or burrito bowls!) I paired these wedges with some cilantro ranch, but fry sauce, garlic aioli, and ketchup are great options, too. You may want to make a double batch of these- they’re so good, everyone will want seconds.

How to Make Deep Fried Avocado Fries
The process is a lot simpler than you’d think! You’ll have your avocado fries crispy, golden, and ready to munch on in no time.
Swap Out Seasonings: You can customize the flavor of your bread crumb mixture by swapping your Italian seasoning for a pinch of Cajun seasoning, lemon pepper, or blackened seasoning. A pinch of paprika or cayenne is also great for adding a touch of spice!Use Firm Avocados: If you have an avocado on hand that isn’t quite soft to the touch yet, it’s perfect for making fries with. You want any avocados you use to be slightly firm, so they hold up through the breading process.
Note: I always like to crisp up leftover avocado fries by popping them in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes at 350 degrees F.
