These crispy parmesan garlic zucchini fries are baked until golden and crunchy with a cheesy, garlicky coating. A healthier alternative to traditional fries, they’re perfect as a snack, appetizer, or side dish with your favorite dipping sauces.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis, cut into fries
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour (or almond flour for low-carb)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs)
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Olive oil spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Set up breading station with three bowls: flour, beaten eggs, and panko mixed with Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Dredge each zucchini fry in flour, dip in egg, then coat in breadcrumb mixture.
  4. Place coated fries in a single layer on the baking sheet and spray lightly with olive oil.
  5. Bake 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
  6. Serve hot with dipping sauce of choice.

Notes

  • Pat zucchini dry before breading for crispier fries.
  • Swap Parmesan for pecorino or asiago for a flavor twist.
  • Add cayenne or chili powder for extra heat.
  • Use almond flour and gluten-free breadcrumbs for a low-carb, gluten-free version.
  • Best served fresh, as they lose crispiness when stored too long.
