Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil (for greasing the baking sheet)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
Wash and dry the zucchinis, then cut them into 1/4-inch-thick rounds.
Set up three separate bowls: one with all-purpose flour, one with the beaten egg, and one with a mixture of grated Parmesan, Panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Working in batches, dredge each zucchini coin in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip it into the egg, then coat it in the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated zucchini coins in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip the zucchini coins and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara or ranch, and enjoy!
