Golden, cheesy, and irresistibly crisp, these baked parmesan zucchini fries are a healthy, quick snack or side dish—perfect for dipping or enjoying solo.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 medium zucchinis, sliced into 1/4-inch thick sticks or rounds
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs (optional for extra crunch)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Pat the zucchini slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  3. In a large bowl, toss zucchini with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  4. In a separate shallow bowl, mix parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs (if using).
  5. Dredge each zucchini slice in the parmesan mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.
  6. Arrange zucchini in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overlapping.
  7. Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp.
  8. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy as is.

Notes

  • Use a wire rack on the baking sheet for even crisping.
  • Skip panko for a gluten-free version.
  • Serve with marinara, ranch, or garlic aioli for dipping.
  • Best enjoyed fresh from the oven for maximum crunch.
