Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0 cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Lightly coat the baking sheet with cooking spray.
Step 2
Wash and dry the zucchinis. Cut them into fry-shaped sticks, approximately 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.
Step 3
Set up your breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. In the third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Working in small batches, dredge the zucchini sticks in the flour, ensuring they are evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Step 5
Dip the floured zucchini into the whisked eggs, allowing any excess egg to drip off before transferring them to the breadcrumb mixture.
Step 6
Roll the zucchini in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating adheres evenly on all sides.
Step 7
Place the breaded zucchini sticks on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not touching each other.
Step 8
Lightly spray the tops of the zucchini fries with cooking spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Step 9
Bake the zucchini fries in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce!
