Baked Zucchini Fries

So Zucchini Fries are one of my favorite snacks and they are so much healthier than french fires or most other appetizer type foods. I found this recipe on Pinterest but have made some slight changes after trial and error. Below is what I have found to work best but please feel free to share any tips or comments to improve the recipe.

Ingredients:
  • 1 large zucchini
  • 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
Directions
  • Preheat oven to 425°
  • Cut zucchini into 3-inch sticks
  • Whisk an egg in a small bowl
  • Combine parmesan, seasoned breadcrumbs, and garlic in a separate bowl
  • Dip zucchini sticks into egg mixture and then toss in breadcrumb mixture
  • Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray and place zucchini on sheet
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown (for even cooking flip zucchini half way through)





Ideas for Dipping Sauces 
  • Sour cream and Sriracha (combine 1/4 cup light sour cream with 1 teaspoon sriracha)
  • Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce (combine 1/4 cup light sour cream with 1 tablespoon honey mustard)
  • Good ol' ketchup
  • Ranch Dip (combine 1/4 cup light sour cream with 2 tablespoons ranch dressing)
