Zucchini Fries Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchinis Fresh, washed and dried
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour For coating
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder For flavoring
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning You can use any seasoning of your choice
- 2 large eggs Beaten for dipping
- 1 cup breadcrumbs Use Panko for extra crunch
- to taste Salt and pepper For seasoning
- as needed Cooking spray or olive oil spray For crispiness
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by washing and drying the zucchinis. Cut off the ends and slice them into sticks about 1/4 inch thick.
Coating
- In one bowl, combine the all-purpose flour with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- In a second bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
- In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs.
- Take each zucchini stick and coat it in the flour mixture, dip it into the egg, and finally roll it in the breadcrumbs until fully covered.
Cooking
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
- Once preheated, place the zucchini fries into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray.
- Air fry the zucchini fries for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, shaking them halfway through for even cooking.
- Once cooked, remove them from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces.
Notes
Ensure uniform sizing of zucchini sticks for consistent cooking. Panko breadcrumbs enhance the crunch. Season generously and avoid overcrowding in the air fryer. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
