Ingredients

3 zucchinis
½ cup plain bread crumbs
½ cup parmesan cheese
1 packet ranch dressing & seasoning mix
2 eggs beaten

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F degrees. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil sprayed with cooking spray or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
Cut ends off of each zucchini. Then cut each zucchini in half and cut into 1/2-inch strips.
In a small bowl, whisk together eggs. In another small bowl, mix bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and ranch mix.
Dip each zucchini strip into egg mixture, shaking to remove any excess, and roll strips in bread crumb mixture to coat. Transfer coated zucchini strips to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 25 minutes, turning once at around 10 minutes left. Serve with ranch dressing or marinara sauce.

Notes

To make sure that these zucchini fries are cooked thoroughly crispy as can be, I HIGHLY recommend using a silicone baking mat. If you don’t have one, you can get them here. I use mine all the time and I never have to worry about my fries sticking to the mat.
Do you like your fries EXTRA crispy? I know I do! The trick is, right before I put these fries in the oven, I lightly spray them with cooking spray. It always helps them crisp up a little extra while they bake.
Try your best to chop your zucchini fries to the same size. That way they’ll all bake evenly and you won’t have any that are more or less cooked than others.
