Crispy Baked Zucchini Fries

[Joseez]

Hey, foodies! Are you looking for a healthier alternative to traditional french fries that still satisfy your craving for something crispy and delicious? Well, look no further because these Crispy Baked Zucchini Fries are about to become your new obsession! They're coated in a seasoned breadcrumb mixture and baked to golden perfection, making them the perfect guilt-free snack or side dish.

Ingredients:

• 2 medium zucchinis
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (you can use panko breadcrumbs for extra crispiness)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 eggs, beaten
• Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with cooking spray or olive oil.
2. Cut the zucchinis into fry-shaped sticks, about 1/2 inch thick and 3 inches long.
3. In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
4. Dip each zucchini stick into the beaten eggs, shaking off any excess, then coat it evenly with the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to adhere the breadcrumbs.
5. Place the coated zucchini sticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they're not touching each other.
6. Lightly spray the tops of the zucchini fries with cooking spray or drizzle them with olive oil.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the zucchini fries are golden brown and crispy.
8. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

These Crispy Baked Zucchini Fries are not only incredibly addictive but also a great way to sneak some veggies into your diet. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, like marinara or ranch, and enjoy them as a snack, appetizer, or side dish.

Give them a try, and I guarantee you won't be able to resist coming back for more! Let me know how they turn out for you. Happy snacking!
