Crispy Baked Avocado Bites with Spicy Peanut Dip

Ingredients

• 2 ripe but firm avocados
• 1/2 cup Garlic & Herb Bread Crumbs
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp NON-GMO AVOCADO OIL EXPELLER PRESSED
• 1/4 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 1 tsp chili garlic sauce (or sriracha)
• 2-3 tbsp warm water

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Slice each avocado in half, remove pit, peel, and cut each half into 4-5 wedges.

3. 3

   Set up a dredging station: one shallow bowl with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with Garlic & Herb Bread Crumbs.

4. 4

   Dip each avocado wedge first in flour, then egg, then coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs, pressing gently. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.

5. 5

   Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

6. 6

   While avocados bake, prepare the dip: In a small bowl, whisk together Creamy Peanut Butter, lime juice, chili garlic sauce, and 2 tbsp warm water until smooth. Add more water if needed to reach desired consistency. Stir in the NON-GMO AVOCADO OIL EXPELLER PRESSED for richness.

7. 7

   Serve the crispy avocado bites immediately with the spicy peanut dip.
