Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchini trimmed and cut into fries
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  • Set up three shallow bowls. In the first, add the flour. In the second, whisk the eggs. In the third, combine the panko breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  • Pat the zucchini fries dry with paper towels. Dip each zucchini fry first into the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, letting any excess drip off. Finally, coat it thoroughly in the panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Arrange the breaded zucchini fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding.
  • Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or marinara.

Notes

For extra crispiness, you can spray the fries with a little cooking spray before air frying.
