How To Eat Avocado Seeds
Now that you’ve learned about the many benefits that avocado seeds can provide for your health, you’re probably wondering how the heck to eat them. They’re hard, heavy and seemingly close to indestructible.
The first step is to remove the seed from the surrounding flesh by cutting the avocado in half with a large sharp knife then whacking the knife down hard on the seed to stick it onto the blade. Use the edge of a cutting board to dislodge the seed from the knife blade, then cut it into quarters with a sharp knife, being careful of your fingers. The seed is actually surprisingly easy to cut with a suitably sharp knife.
Now throw the quarters into a powerful blender and process until you make a fine powder. Divide the resulting powder into two piles— one pile is enough for a single serving, so put the other pile in a storage container in the fridge. Now you can throw the powder into a smoothie mix, but be sure the other ingredients are relatively strong, as the seed powder can be quite bitter due to its tannins.
Still need convincing that avocados are the real deal? Here are 19 more reasons!

better way to eat the seeds: Run them through a champion juicer, add the ‘nut better’ to an omelet with onions peppers and eggs. That way it comes through as sort of a meaty taste rather than trying to cover the seed taste with smooth and sweet, which is rather difficult.

I predict lots of badly cut fingers.
As I understand you remove the seed and cut it into small pieces and dry .You may turn it to fine powder by any method.
