Easy Oven Baked Zucchini Fries for Toddlers

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium-large zucchinis cut into fry-shaped sticks
  • 2 eggs beaten *1 egg will work if the zucchinis are smaller
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs or almond flour
  • cup grated parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon salt optional
  • olive oil spray optional

Instructions
 

  • Set to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice zucchinis into fry-like strips and pat dry with a paper towel. Feel free to leave skin on or off depending how you prefer (if you're working on exposure with your picky eater, try taking skin off first).
  • In one bowl, place the beaten eggs. In another, mix breadcrumbs/almond flour, parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt.
  • Dip each zucchini stick in egg wash, then press into the dry mixture to coat evenly.
  • Place fries on the baking sheet in a single layer. Spray lightly with olive oil if desired. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
