Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and slice the zucchini, eggplant, and bell peppers into fry-like strips, about 1/2 inch thick.
In a shallow bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another small bowl, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Dip each vegetable strip into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
Coat each egg-dipped vegetable strip evenly with the Parmesan and almond flour mixture.
Place the coated veggie strips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the veggie fries with olive oil spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the veggie fries are crispy and golden brown.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy baked veggie fries with a low-carb dip of your choice!
