Ingredients
Scale
One of the best parts about this recipe is how straightforward it is. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 medium zucchinis, cut into sticks
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
If you don’t have panko breadcrumbs, regular breadcrumbs will work just fine. For a bit of heat, feel free to add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the mix!
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to whip up your own batch of zucchini fries:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a shallow dish, mix together the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Beat the eggs in a separate shallow dish.
- Dip each zucchini stick into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then roll in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.
- Place the coated zucchini sticks on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, turning halfway through for even cooking.
- Let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the crunch!
I love involving my kids in this part; they enjoy dipping and coating the zucchini, making it a fun family activity.
