Equipment

Oven
Baking sheet
Parchment paper
Shallow bowls
Knife
Fork or whisk

Ingredients

2 large avocados approximately 200 grams each
1 cup almond flour 96 grams
1 tsp paprika 2 grams
½ tsp garlic powder 1.4 grams
½ tsp onion powder 1.4 grams
¼ tsp cayenne pepper 0.5 grams, optional for heat
½ tsp salt 3 grams
¼ tsp black pepper 0.6 grams
2 large eggs approximately 100 grams

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the avocados in half and remove the pits. Carefully peel the skin off and cut each half into three wedges.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the coating mixture.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until they are well combined.
Dip each avocado wedge first into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, and then coat them in the almond flour mixture. Ensure each wedge is well-coated on all sides.
Place the coated avocado wedges onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not touching to ensure even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the coating is golden brown and crispy.
Remove the wedges from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

The cayenne pepper is optional and can be adjusted to taste or omitted for a milder flavor.

Monitor the avocado wedges while baking, as oven temperatures can vary, and you want to ensure they do not overcook.

Serve with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or spicy aioli, for added flavor.
