Avocado oil is ok. We use it every day. Almond flour is not so much. It has a texture and taste I do not too much care for.

To use either or both of those ingredients in a gumbo requires the dieter to make a decision how much off the classic roux recipe they want their food to taste. To some, it may be acceptable and to others not.


Edited to add - I have realized, since writing this, that I had already replied. I think I said the same thing the second time (which is good for an old fart like me). I have no problems with others using the jarred roux made with avocado oil and almond oil, because it is their gumbo, even if granny made her gumbo some other way.

I probably have given up making gumbo for an unknown time, and that works for me, too.
