Description

These Crispy Baked Keto Zucchini Fries are the ultimate low-carb alternative to traditional fries—golden, crunchy, and loaded with flavor. Baked to perfection with a keto-friendly coating, they’re an easy, healthy side or snack you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

  • Medium zucchinis
  • Almond flour
  • Grated parmesan cheese
  • Garlic powder
  • Paprika
  • Salt and pepper
  • Eggs
  • Olive oil spray or avocado oil spray

 


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prep Zucchini: Slice zucchinis into fry-like strips—thin enough to crisp, but sturdy enough to hold shape.
  3. Set Up Breading Station: Whisk eggs in one bowl. In another, combine almond flour, parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Coat Zucchini: Dip each zucchini stick into the egg, then dredge in almond flour mixture. Press lightly to ensure the coating sticks.
  5. Arrange & Bake: Place fries on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Lightly spray with oil.
  6. Bake: Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy and golden.
  7. Cool & Serve: Let fries cool slightly before serving—they crisp up more as they rest.

 


Notes

  • Pat zucchini dry before breading to help the coating stick.
  • Add cayenne or crushed chili flakes for a spicy version.
  • Mix in crushed chicken rinds for an extra crunchy texture.
  • Swap parmesan for shredded cheddar for a cheesier variation.
