Ingredients
  

For the Fries
  • 3 medium Zucchini Choose firmer zucchinis for better texture.
  • 1 cup Breadcrumbs Panko breadcrumbs recommended for extra crunch.
  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese Adds flavor and helps with browning.
  • 2 large Eggs Used to bind the coating.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder For enhanced flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper Adjust to taste.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Slice the zucchinis into fries, ensuring they are uniform in size.
  3. Pat the zucchini fries dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
  4. In a bowl, whisk the eggs and set aside.
  5. In another bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Coating
  1. Dip each zucchini fry into the egg, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it sticks well.
  2. Place the coated zucchini fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cooking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Serving
  1. Serve immediately with dipping sauces of your choice.

Notes

For best results, serve the fries fresh to maintain the crunch. Variations can include adding spices or herbs to the breadcrumb mixture for different flavors.
