  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 33 minute

Ingredients

– 2 medium zucchinis
– 1 cup breadcrumbs (Panko or regular)
– ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– ½ teaspoon paprika
– ¼ teaspoon black pepper
– 2 large eggs
– Salt, to taste
– Olive oil spray or extra virgin olive oil for drizzling


Instructions

To create your amazing Baked Zucchini Fries, follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare the Zucchini: Rinse the zucchini and cut off both ends. Slice each zucchini into fries, aiming for a uniform width (about ½ inch thick) for even cooking.
3. Set Up Breading Stations: In one bowl, whisk the eggs. In another bowl, mix together breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt to taste.
4. Dredge the Zucchini: Dip each zucchini fry into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off. Then, coat the fry in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it’s well covered.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the breaded zucchini fries onto a greased baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
6. Spray with Olive Oil: Lightly spray the zucchini fries with olive oil to enhance crispiness.
7. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through to ensure even browning.
8. Check for Doneness: The fries should be golden brown and crisp. If desired, bake for an additional 5 minutes for extra crunch.
9. Remove from Oven: Once cooked to your liking, take the baking sheet out of the oven and allow the fries to cool for a couple of minutes.
10. Serve Warm: Enjoy them fresh out of the oven while they retain their crunch!

With these simple steps, you will have beautiful, crispy Baked Zucchini Fries that are sure to impress!
