But this one won&#8217;t keep long, and the tacos are best enjoyed fresh anyway.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make avocado tacos ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Fried avocado slices are really best enjoyed right out of the air fryer, so we wouldn&#8217;t recommend making these tacos ahead of time.<\/p>\n<h2>Avocado Taco Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2047684\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Avocado-Tacos_TOHD24_256323_LeticiaAlmeida-11.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Close up of avocado tacos ready and served on plate.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Leticia Almeida for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can you bake the avocado slices instead of using an air fryer?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can bake the avocado if you don&#8217;t have an air fryer. Dredge the avocado slices in the cornmeal mixture as per Step 2 in this avocado taco recipe. Then, line up the slices on a greased baking sheet and cook them for 15 to 20 minutes in a 475\u00b0 oven, flipping at least once.<\/p>\n<h3>How can I get my corn tortillas to be crispy?<\/h3>\n<p>We love crisping up the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-tortillas\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-tortillas\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">tortillas<\/a> before using them for avocado tacos.

You could always serve your avocado tacos with some grilled seafood or steak on the side, if you want to get your meat fix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These juicy, flavorful and healthy avocado tacos are for anyone who&#8217;s a fan of avocado.
