Avocado Fries and a Skinny Sweet-with-Heat Chipotle Dipping Sauce

I’m so excited to share this recipe with you that I’m doing the post a day early! I have so many posts that I can’t wait to share with you this week that I can barely stand myself! But, one recipe at a time.

Let me introduce you to my Avocado Fries with my Skinny Sweet-with-Heat Chipotle Dipping Sauce! This recipe is divine. The avocado fries are creamy with a crunchy outer coating and the chipotle dipping sauce is the perfect combination of hot and sweet. This recipe will have you feeling more than satisfied. As I’ve promised you and told you many many times eating healthy, clean, skinny, lean – whatever you want to call it – can be delicious! This recipe is evidence.

So, go have clean avocado fries with healthy sweet-with-heat chipotle dipping sauce and enjoy it! I mean it, go make this recipe then comeback and make sure to comment on this post. Oh and you’re welcome!

Notes – I included two options for cooking methods. One is the ‘baking method’ which for some people will be chosen for reduced fat and convenience. The other is the ‘pan-frying method’ with coconut oil. Now, the pan-frying method is not bad for you at all. For this entire recipe I only used 1 Tbsp of coconut oil. There have been a lot of great health claims associated with coconut oil and it is a wonderful high-heat cooking oil. Either method is great but I will say the pan-fried using the coconut oil does give it that extra flavor. It just makes you feel like you’re eating something bad.
 

Gluten-Free Avocado Fries

To make these avocado fries gluten-free it is extremely simple. Simply substitute the oat flour for almond meal. Almond meal is finely ground almonds and can be found in the natural section of most grocery stores.

I personally love the Bob’s Red Mill brand of almond meal!

Avocado Fries Recipe

Makes 3 Servings

Ingredients:

  • 3 Firm Avocados
  • 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil (If using the frying method)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/2 Cup Oat Flour (Or – Almond Meal) *See instructions below.
  • Salt and Pepper

Prep Directions:

  1. First, cut avocados in half removing the pit. Continue to slice avocado into “fry-sized” wedges.

  3. In a separate bowl place two eggs and beat until blended.
  4. Add salt and pepper to the eggs as desired.
  5. Take individual avocado slices and dip them in your eggs then directly into your flour. Make sure they are completely coated in the flour.

Frying Method

  1. Heat cast-iron pan to medium-low (water should sizzle when sprinkled on the pan).
  2. Add one tbsp of coconut oil to the pan and let melt.
  3. Place avocado fries in the pan and let each side ‘brown.’
  4. Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Baking Method

  1. Pre-heat oven to 425 F.
  2. Place avocado fries on a parchment covered baking sheet evenly spaced.
  3. Bake for 25 minutes (or until brown) flipping them once.
  4. Serve immediately.

    Hi Amy- just wanted to say I cannot wait to try these!! They look delicious! And for a Gluten Free option- the recipe is actually already gluten free! Almond meal is gluten free :)

    • Ashesly

      Oops…I mean, some oat flour is gluten free (many brand, found in the gluten free or natural food section)

      • http://www.damyhealth.com Amy Layne

        Yes, oats can be gluten-free as long as they say “non contaminated” which can be hard to find so for everyone that is gluten-free OR grain-free I always give options :)  

        Enjoy the recipe! It is so good!!

    I can’t wait to try this recipe!!!  So, one avocado is a serving?

    Any idea why my batch came out tasting bitter?  I used egg whites from a carton instead of real eggs.  Could that be the reason why?  I baked them and coated them with almond flour….

      Hey Jacqueline! 
       That is so weird! Did you use an oil? Did you use firm avocados? I can not say that I have had this happen before!  Hopefully you can figure it out!  They are so amazing! Hope it works out next time for you

      • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_D4EFAZMINVANIHOOWIU5LWGQLM Jacqueline

        I did not use an oil.  I’m thinking it was the almond meal?  I keep mine in the fridge and also, don’t nuts taste bitter if you bake them too long?  Once I scrapped off the almond meal, the avocados tasted fine.  Next time I will try using the oatmeal flour :)

      I am really no sure Jacqueline! I bake with Almond meal every day and have never had it taste bitter. It sounds like the oats would be a better fit for you! :)
