Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Slice the zucchinis into 1/4-inch thick rounds and set aside.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until well blended.
Step 4
Dip each zucchini slice in the beaten eggs, letting any excess drip off, then dredge in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Repeat for all zucchini slices.
Step 5
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Working in batches, place zucchini slices in the skillet. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Step 7
Transfer cooked slices to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 8
Repeat with remaining zucchini slices, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Step 9
Serve warm as a snack or side dish.
