Description
Air Fryer Zucchini Fries Parmesan is a deliciously healthy snack that transforms zucchini into crispy fries, perfect for satisfying snack cravings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large zucchini
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup seasoned panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Black pepper to taste
- High heat cooking oil spray
Instructions
- Begin by trimming off the ends of the zucchini. Then, slice it lengthwise into thick 1/2-inch “fries.”
- Prepare your breading station by laying out three shallow dishes. In the first dish, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In the second dish, beat the eggs until smooth. In the third dish, combine the seasoned panko breadcrumbs with the finely grated Parmesan cheese.
- Take each zucchini stick and coat it in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any extra to drip off. Finally, roll the zucchini in the Parmesan panko mixture, pressing gently to create an even coating.
- Carefully place your breaded zucchini fries in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are in a single layer without overcrowding.
- Lightly spray the zucchini fries with high-heat cooking oil spray.
- Cook the fries at 400°F for about 10-12 minutes, turning each fry halfway through cooking.
- Once cooked, serve your Air Fryer Zucchini Fries Parmesan immediately while they’re hot and crispy.
Notes
These fries are perfect as a snack, appetizer, or side dish. Consider serving them with ranch dressing, marinara, or garlic aioli.
