Description

A healthier twist on classic zucchini fries, made perfectly crispy in the air fryer with minimal oil.


Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and dry the zucchinis. Slice them into sticks.
  3. In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Toss zucchini sticks with olive oil until lightly coated.
  5. Dredge each stick in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they get evenly covered.
  6. Place the coated zucchini fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  7. Cook for about 10 to 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
  8. Once golden and crispy, remove from the air fryer and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra crispiness, spritz the fries with cooking spray halfway through cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
