Instructions

Making Baked Parmesan Zucchini Fries is a breeze! Follow these simple steps for a delightful result:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
2. Prepare the Zucchini: Wash the zucchinis thoroughly, then slice them into long, thin strips, resembling fries.
3. Set Up Breading Stations: In one bowl, whisk the eggs together until well beaten. In a second bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
4. Coat the Zucchini: Dip each zucchini strip in the beaten eggs, ensuring it is completely coated. Then, roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere well.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated zucchini fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each fry to promote even baking.
6. Bake in the Oven: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip the fries halfway through to ensure even cooking.
7. Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove the fries from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.

By following these steps, you will have beautifully baked zucchini fries that are not only tasty but also healthier than their fried counterparts!
