Ingredients
  

For the Fries
  • 2 medium Zucchini Use medium-sized zucchinis for perfect cuts and a crispy texture.
  • 1 large Egg Acts as a binder; substitute with a flax egg for a vegan option.
  • 2 tablespoons Avocado Oil Helps achieve that golden-brown crispiness; olive oil can be used as a substitute.
For the Coating
  • 1 cup Almond Flour Provides a gluten-free coating; coconut flour works as a nut-free alternative.
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Flour Adds texture; feel free to adjust the amount based on preference.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese Enhances flavor and crispiness; make it dairy-free by using nutritional yeast.
For Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Essential for enhancing the flavor; adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper Essential for enhancing the flavor; adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Introduces depth; substitute with fresh garlic for a more robust flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Italian Herbs Customize to your liking; oregano or basil can elevate the taste profile.

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. For an extra crispy finish, place the baking sheet in the oven while it preheats.
  2. Wash and dry the zucchinis, then cut them into strips about 3 inches long. Ensure they’re uniformly cut for even cooking.
  3. Whisk together the egg and avocado oil in a medium bowl until well combined.
  4. Mix the almond flour, coconut flour, Parmesan cheese, and your preferred seasonings in a separate bowl. Blend until evenly combined.
  5. Dredge each zucchini stick in the egg mixture first, then coat thoroughly in the flour mixture.
  6. Arrange the coated zucchini on your preheated baking sheet, making sure they’re spaced out.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they turn golden brown and crispy.
  8. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor. Enjoy!
