Vegan Avocado Fries
Truth, I had made a baked version of this recipe over a year 1/2 ago and thought that I had struck gold.
After I finally got around to making the fried version.. I realized I was way, way, way off..
One thing that always made me less open to making vegan fried recipes is that the batter never sticks, but slides off and looks aesthetically terrible.
Until there was the Follow Your Heart Vegan Egg!!
If you think you love avocados, but have yet to ever have a fried avocado, well my friend.. Your affinity for avocados is going to triple..
