Main Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized zucchinis Wash thoroughly and slice into long, thin strips.
- 1 cup almond flour Or any keto-friendly flour.
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs Whisked for coating.
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- to taste salt

- as needed cooking spray or olive oil For crisping.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash the zucchinis thoroughly and slice them into long, thin strips to resemble fries.
Breading Station
- In one bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Coating
- Dip each zucchini strip into the egg mix first, then coat it well in the almond flour mixture, ensuring each piece is evenly covered.
Cooking
- Place the coated zucchini fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or in your air fryer basket.
- If baking, lightly spray with cooking spray. Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- If using an air fryer, cook at 400°F (200°C) for around 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Serving
- Once crispy and fragrant, remove them from the heat and let them cool slightly before serving.
- Pair with your favorite dipping sauce, such as homemade ranch or spicy aioli.
Notes
Ensure zucchini strips are dry before coating to avoid soggy fries. Feel free to mix in your favorite spices for added flavor, and try different dips for serving.
