How to Roasting Avocado Fries in an Oven.

Avocados are a delicious superfood packed with nutrients, healthy fats, and fiber. While there are many ways to cook with this versatile fruit, baking avocados is one easy and delicious technique that leaves plenty of room to be creative. You can cook a simple but delicious breakfast with avocado and eggs while adding your own zesty toppings. For a healthy alternative to potatoes, you can roast avocado fries as a side dish to a meat- or plant-based burger. And if you're in the mood for a quick and easy snack, simply putting avocado halves in the oven topped with your favorite cheese will fill you up!

Ingredients.
3 avocados.
1⁄2 cup (120 ml) all-purpose flour.
Salt and pepper.
2 eggs.
1 1⁄2 cups (350 ml) panko breadcrumbs.
1 tablespoon (15 ml) melted butter or margarine.
1⁄2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) garlic powder.
1⁄2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) onion powder.
1⁄2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) paprika.
1⁄2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) salt.
1⁄4 teaspoon (1.2 ml) ground black pepper.
3 mixing bowls.
Cooking spray.
Baking sheet.
Wire rack.

Steps.

1. Preheat the oven to 450 °F (232 °C). As your oven is preheating, gather all of your ingredients, including your avocados, flour, eggs, panko breadcrumbs, and assorted spices. In addition, grab three mixing bowls.

2. Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits and skins. After removing the pits, carefully scoop the avocados out of the skin while keeping their shape. Slice the avocados lengthwise for the desired thickness. The slices should not be too thin but thick enough to keep shape.

As long as the avocado is not overripe, it should come out solid but not too hard. 3 avocados should yield 20-22 fries.

3. Add 1⁄2 cup (120 ml) of flour in the first mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper into the flour. Mix the flour, salt, and pepper well.

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper work well for this recipe.

4. Crack the eggs into the second bowl. Keeping the egg whites and yolks together, lightly beat the eggs. As you crack the eggs into the bowl make sure that no shells fall into the mixture. Set the bowl to the side.

One vegan alternative to eggs would be 6 fluid ounces (180 ml) of silken tofu with 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of non-dairy milk.

5. Combine the panko breadcrumbs and melted butter in the third bowl. Mix the ingredients, and add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine all ingredients.

6. Dip the avocado slices into the flour and beaten egg. After you have dipped each avocado slice into the flour and egg, coat the slices thoroughly with the panko and place on the wire rack. Spray the avocado slices with the cooking spray of your choice.

The wire rack should be placed on top of a baking sheet for stability and to catch any ingredients that fall off the rack.If you do not have a wire rack, it is fine to bake the fries on greased aluminum foil or parchment paper on a baking sheet. Turn the fries halfway through baking.

Olive oil or vegetable oil spray works well for this recipe.

7. Bake the avocado slices for 20-25 minutes. Once the panko is lightly brown, remove the avocado fries from the oven. Let the slices cool for 10 minutes. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce!



Tips.

As with most fruits, ripeness is key. Always cook with ripe avocados. You can tell when an avocado is ripe by holding it in the palm of your hand and squeezing. If the avocado is hard, it is not ripe. If it is mushy, it is overripe. The perfect avocado will yield a minimal amount of pressure, and the skin should “give” slightly but not remain indented.

Some methods for increasing the ripening speed for avocados include putting the fruit in a paper bag overnight or baking the avocado wrapped in foil at 200 °F (93 °C)}. While these methods might work occasionally, it is always best to let avocados ripe naturally.

There are countless ways to bake avocados. Be creative with your ingredients, and do an online search for many more recipes.

Warnings.

As with any baking recipe, make sure to use safe handling practices when removing your avocados from the oven. Be mindful of oven temperatures, and keep a close eye on your avocados as they are baking.

Practice sanitary cooking methods, and wash your hands often.

how to baking an avocado with eggs

How to Baking an Avocado with Eggs.

Avocados are a delicious superfood packed with nutrients, healthy fats, and fiber. While there are many ways to cook with this versatile fruit, baking avocados is one easy and delicious technique that leaves plenty of room to be creative. You can cook a simple but delicious breakfast with avocado and eggs while adding your own zesty toppings. For a healthy alternative to potatoes, you can roast avocado fries as a side dish to a meat- or plant-based burger. And if you're in the mood for a quick and easy snack, simply putting avocado halves in the oven topped with your favorite cheese will fill you up!

Ingredients.
1 avocado.
2 eggs.
1 lime.
Salt and pepper.
Optional toppings.
Flour or corn tortillas (optional).
Baking sheet.

Steps.

1. Preheat the oven to 450 °F (232 °C). A standard oven will work fine for baked avocado with eggs. As your oven is preheating, gather your avocado, eggs, lime, salt, pepper, and any additional toppings.

For best results, adjust the oven rack so that it is located in the middle position.

2. Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Cut the avocado by taking a sharp knife and cutting lengthwise down the middle around the pit. At this point, you can open the two halves, exposing the pit.

3. Scoop out the center of each avocado half. After you have removed the pit, use a spoon to scoop out the center of each half about 1 1⁄2 tablespoons (22 ml). Each center should be able to hold one egg.

You can save the scooped avocado centers as a small condiment for other dishes. A useful way to store avocado is to coat it with olive oil or lemon juice and place it in an airtight container in the fridge.

The remaining avocado makes a delicious spread for sandwiches.

4. Squeeze lime juice over the avocado halves and sprinkle with salt and pepper. After you have added the lime juice, salt, and pepper, crinkle two pieces of foil and set each half into the foil. Place the avocado halves on a baking sheet.

The foil helps keep the avocado halves secure and prevents them from rolling around in the oven. The foil also helps keep the toppings intact.[4]

5. Break one egg into the center of each avocado half. Be careful to keep the egg yolk intact as you break the egg into the center. Do not worry if some of the egg whites spill out of the avocado. Just make sure that the yolks stay inside the halves.

As with most recipes that call for eggs, be careful not to let any shells into the avocado. You can prevent this by lightly tapping the egg on a bowl or edge of the kitchen counter. Only create a small crack and carefully separate the egg shell over the avocado half. If a piece of shell falls into the egg, simply use the shell to scoop it out.

6. Bake the avocado in the oven for 10-12 minutes. Once you see that the egg whites are set and the yolk is runny, remove the avocado halves from the oven and garnish with the toppings of your choice, such as: cilantro, scallions, and or chopped jalapeños. Let cool. Bon appetit!

This recipe can be served with warmed flour or corn tortillas. For best results, warm tortillas on a skillet, in the oven, or over a direct heat source, such as a gas range stove.

how to cooking an avocado with melted cheese

How to Cooking an Avocado with Melted Cheese.

Avocados are a delicious superfood packed with nutrients, healthy fats, and fiber. While there are many ways to cook with this versatile fruit, baking avocados is one easy and delicious technique that leaves plenty of room to be creative. You can cook a simple but delicious breakfast with avocado and eggs while adding your own zesty toppings. For a healthy alternative to potatoes, you can roast avocado fries as a side dish to a meat- or plant-based burger. And if you're in the mood for a quick and easy snack, simply putting avocado halves in the oven topped with your favorite cheese will fill you up!

Ingredients.
1 avocado.
Salt and pepper.
Shredded cheese.
Other seasonings and toppings to taste (optional).
Baking sheet.

Steps.

1. Preheat the oven to 325 °F (163 °C). While your oven is preheating, gather your avocado, salt, pepper, and shredded cheese. If you did not buy packaged shredded cheese, now is the time to grate the cheese in preparation for this recipe.

2. Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. After you have cut the avocado lengthwise down the middle with a sharp knife, open the two halves and remove the pit. Season each half with salt and pepper.

3. Top the avocado halves with the shredded cheese of your choice. Make sure to include an even distribution of cheese on each half. Be careful not to add too much cheese, as it could overpower the taste of the avocado. Shredded pepper jack or a Mexican blend of Monterrey jack, cheddar, and asadero would work well for this dish.

Pico de gallo is another ingredient that pairs well with the avocado and shredded cheese. Make sure to add the pico de gallo before you top the avocado with the cheese. You may purchase store bought pico de gallo or make your own.

Other toppings can include cilantro, lime juice, or chopped jalapeño.

4. Crinkle two pieces of foil and place each avocado half into each piece. After you have set the halves in the foil and are certain they will stay secure, place your avocado on a baking sheet.

The foil will keep the halves from rolling around on the baking sheet and will catch any cheese that melts off of the avocado.

5. Bake the avocado for 8-12 minutes. Once you see that the shredded cheese has melted and the avocado halves are warm throughout, remove the halves from the oven, let cool, and enjoy!
