Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchinis sliced into fries
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 egg beaten
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425F (220C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Dip each zucchini fry into the beaten egg, then coat with the almond flour mixture.
- Arrange the coated zucchini fries on the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crispy.
- Serve warm with a keto-friendly dipping sauce.
Notes
Chef's Tip: Space the fries out on the baking sheet with room between each one - crowding traps steam and keeps them from crisping. Keto Swap: traditional breadcrumb coating is replaced with almond flour and Parmesan - baking instead of frying keeps this genuinely low-effort and low-mess.
