If you're searching for ASX dividend shares to buy, then the two listed below could be worth looking at.

Both have been tipped as buys with decent upside potential and attractive yields. Here's what you need to know about them:

Coles Group Ltd (ASX: COL)

The first ASX dividend share to consider buying is supermarket operator Coles.

It has been tipped as a buy by analysts at Morgans, which have an add rating and $19.50 price target on its shares. This compares to the latest Coles share price of $17.84.

According to the note, Morgans thinks Coles' shares are attractively priced given the company's defensive qualities. It believes the latter put it in "a good position to navigate through a weaker economic environment."

The broker also highlights that "the unwinding of local shopping should also help further market share gains."

Morgans is forecasting fully franked dividends of 66 cents per share in FY 2023 and FY 2024. Based on the current Coles share price, this will mean yields of 3.7%.

Rural Funds Group (ASX: RFF)

Another ASX dividend share that brokers have named as a buy recently is Rural Funds.

Rural Funds is a real estate property trust which owns a diversified portfolio of Australian agricultural assets. This includes almond orchards, macadamia orchards, poultry property and infrastructure, vineyards, cattle properties, cropping properties, cattle, and water rights.

Bell Potter is positive on the company and has a buy rating and $2.65 price target on its shares.

The broker believes its shares are trading at a level that could be "an attractive entry point" for investors.

As for dividends, the broker is expecting an 11.7 cents per share dividend in FY 2023 and then a 12.2 cents per share dividend in FY 2024. Based on the current Rural Funds share price of $2.03, this represents yields of 5.75% and 6%, respectively.
