Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 large egg
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 unit olive oil cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and dry the zucchinis. Cut them into sticks about 3-4 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.
In a shallow dish, combine grated parmesan cheese, almond flour, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Beat the eggs in another shallow dish.
Take each zucchini stick, dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, and then roll it in the parmesan-almond mixture. Press the coating gently onto the zucchini to ensure it sticks.
Place the coated zucchini sticks on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching.
Lightly spray the zucchini sticks with olive oil cooking spray for extra crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and crispy, and the zucchini is tender.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the zucchini sticks warm, perfect with a low-carb dipping sauce or as a delicious side.
