Preheat the oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and dry the zucchinis, then slice them into thin rounds, approximately 1/8 inch thick.
Prepare a coating station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, place the flour. In the second bowl, pour the unsweetened almond milk. In the third bowl, combine breadcrumbs, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Dip each zucchini slice in the flour, ensuring both sides are lightly coated. Shake off excess flour.
Next, dip the floured zucchini slice in the almond milk, coating it completely.
Finally, press the slice into the breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides, and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat with remaining zucchini slices, ensuring they are arranged in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Lightly spray the zucchini chips with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, then flip each chip and bake for an additional 10-13 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Allow the zucchini chips to cool slightly before serving to enhance their crispiness. Enjoy as a healthy snack or side dish!
