These crispy baked zucchini fries are a healthier alternative to traditional fries, coated in a seasoned breadcrumb mixture and baked until golden and crunchy.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchini
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly coat with cooking spray.
  2. Slice zucchini into fries, about 3-4 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Place flour in a shallow bowl.
  4. In another bowl, beat the eggs with water.
  5. In a third bowl, mix panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  6. Dredge each zucchini stick in flour, dip in the egg mixture, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
  7. Place zucchini fries on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
  8. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden and crispy, turning halfway through for even baking.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, toast the panko breadcrumbs before using.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce like marinara or ranch.
  • Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and flour for a gluten-free version.
