Tips to Make This Recipe Even Better

  1. Use Ripe Avocados: Opt for perfectly ripe avocados—they’re creamier and easier to coat for crispiness.

  2. Double Coat for Extra Crunch: Dip the coated avocado slices back into panko for a thicker, more satisfying crunch.

  3. Add a Touch of Lime Zest: Incorporate lime zest into the coating or toppings for an extra burst of citrus flavor.

  4. Experiment with Spices: Mix in smoked paprika, cumin, or chili powder into the flour for added depth.

  5. Serve Immediately: Crispy coatings taste best when fresh; serve the tacos right after air frying for maximum crunch.
