Well if I were you i think I would try and turn the subject to if she supports the community. And if she does there's 99% that she will accept you too.
Now if she doesn't then I guess wait and don't come out to her, also a friend has to accept you for what you are and not what you show, if she doesn't accept you then she is not your actual friend.
But if you do tell her try to explain to her and make her understand that you are the same person as before but with different pronouns and identity but you will still have the same personality as before...
Last but not least, I don't know what you should do if she doesn't get it, i can only wish you good luck and hope for the best
I am sure everything will go fine :))
