Ingredients
-
2 zucchini
-
1 tablespoon salt
-
2 eggs
-
½ cup ground almonds
-
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
½ teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning, or to taste
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Cut zucchini into 3-inch lengths, then cut each piece into 9 fries. Place zucchini fries into a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let the zucchini pieces drain for at least 1 hour to remove excess liquid.
-
Beat eggs in a shallow bowl. Mix almonds, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning in a second shallow bowl. Rinse salt off zucchini and pat dry with paper towels.
-
Dip each zucchini piece into beaten egg and roll in the almond coating. Place coated fries on prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until the zucchini are tender and the coating is crisp and browned, about 25 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking time.
