Air Fryer Zucchini Fries
Ingredients
- 1 medium zucchini cut into "fry" shape
- ½ C egg whites
- ½ C flour all-purpose
- ½ C panko seasoned breadcrumbs
- ½ C seasoned Italian breadcrumbs
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt & Pepper
- Olive oil mist or cooking spray
Instructions
- Set up breading station by placing egg whites in a shallow bowl, flour in another and the breadcrumbs in another. Season the flour with a pinch of salt and pepper and stir the garlic powder into the crumbs.
- Dip each "fry" in flour, then egg white and then coat with breadcrumbs. Set aside. (See notes section for helpful tips).
- Place "fries" in air fryer being sure not to overcrowd as an air fryer requires air circulation to work properly. You will need to work in two batches most likely. Spray the "fries" with cooking spray or olive oil mist.
- Set air fryer to 400 F and timer to 10 minutes. Shake or flip "fries" halfway thru cook time.
- If desired, top with grated parmesan cheese before serving.
Notes
TIP FOR EASY BREADING:
It can be tedious or a little time consuming to bread these "fries" if you are new to this method. A good shortcut would be to put the breadcrumbs in a resealable bag and after they take a dip in the egg white, drop them in the bag and shake. It's a little quicker and less messy than using a bowl.
