Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized Zucchini
- 1 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Egg
- 1 for greasing Olive oil spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the paper with olive oil spray.
Step 2
Wash the zucchinis and slice them into thin, uniform rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, Panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg until fully beaten.
Step 5
Dip each zucchini slice into the beaten egg, letting the excess drip off. Then coat it in the Parmesan and breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure an even coating.
Step 6
Place the coated zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap.
Step 7
Lightly spray the tops of the zucchini crisps with olive oil spray to help them brown and crisp up.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crisps are golden brown and crunchy. Flip them halfway through baking to ensure even cooking.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving for the best texture.
Step 10
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara, ranch, or garlic aioli, and enjoy!
