Notes
For a spicier version, add some chili powder or cayenne pepper to the panko mixture.
For a healthier option, you can also bake the avocado bites in an air fryer instead of the oven.
These avocado bites are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.
