    Combine the flour and seasoning together in a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and water together. In a small bowl, add the parmesan cheese.

    Dredge the zucchini slices into the flour mixture, then into the egg wash, and then into the cheese.

    Place the zucchini onto a prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown.

    Serve with your favorite dipping sauce or dressing and enjoy!

    Hint: If you want extra crispy zucchini fries, once they are cooked, place them under the broiler for a few minutes.

    🥄 Variations

    • Make sure to dry the zucchini pieces to remove excess moisture.
    • When making the coating of the zucchini fries you can also use all purpose flour, coconut flour, or panko bread crumbs.
    • For cheesy zucchini fries, add additional parmesan cheese to the coating mixture.
    • You can also use other types of cheeses such as cheddar, mozzarella, or gouda for a different flavor.
    • You can also add fresh herbs to the coating mixture for an extra flavor boost.

    🍽️ What to Serve With Breaded Zucchini Strips

    • These zucchini fries are delicious served with your favorite dipping sauce or dressing. Try them with a marinara sauce, creamy ranch dressing, BBQ sauce, ketchup, garlic aioli, honey mustard, or spicy mayo.
    • You can also serve these as a side dish to Lemon Rosemary Chicken, steak, fish, burgers, or sandwiches.
    • Don’t forget dessert, Weight Watchers Chocolate Cheesecake

    🍶 Storing

    Refrigerator Storage: Leftover zucchini fries can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

    Freezer Storage: Freeze zucchini fries for up to 3 months. Place the cooked and cooled fries on a baking sheet in a single layer and place them in the freezer until frozen. Then transfer them to an airtight container or freezer bag and store them in the freezer.

    Reheat: To reheat, place them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F until they are hot and crispy. You can also microwave them but they will not be as crispy.

    💭Tip for Making the Perfect

    • Zucchini has a lot of natural moisture in it, so it can be challenging to get crispy results when oven-roasting it. For this reason, small, firm zucchini work best for this recipe.
    • You may also want to remove excess seeds prior to dredging each piece in the seasoned almond or coconut flour. 
    • Zucchini fries are best served hot, so make sure you serve them right away after they come out of the oven.
    • Don’t forget to season with salt and pepper before baking for extra flavor.
    • For extra crunchy zucchini fries, try double-dredging them for an extra crispy coating. Dip them in the egg mixture twice and coat with cheese both times.
    • When reheating, spray the parmesan zucchini fries with cooking spray to help them get crispy again.

    ❔FAQs

    Why are my zucchini fries soggy?

    Soggy zucchini fries can be caused by using too much egg or not drying the zucchini slices off enough before coating them. Make sure to dry the zucchini slices as much as possible and use just enough egg mixture for a thin coating.

    Are zucchini fries healthier than french fries?

    Yes, zucchini fries are healthier than french fries because they are baked instead of fried. Baking the zucchini helps to keep them light and healthy while still giving them a crisp texture. Additionally, they contain fewer calories and fat than traditional french fries.

    Can I make fried zucchini without eggs?

    Yes, you can make fried zucchini without eggs. Simply skip the egg mixture and just coat the zucchini slices in flour and your favorite seasonings before baking them.
