Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Place the coconut flour in a shallow bowl or dish. (2 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg whites and water until lightly frothy. (3 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

In another shallow bowl, combine the almond meal, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and ground black pepper. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the seasonings. (3 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Using tongs, dredge each zucchini fry in the coconut flour, ensuring it's lightly coated. (5 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Dip the coconut flour-coated zucchini into the egg white mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. (5 minutes)

07

Step
5 mins

Immediately transfer the zucchini to the almond meal mixture, tossing to coat completely. Press gently to help the coating adhere. (5 minutes)

08

Step
5 mins

Arrange the coated zucchini fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. (5 minutes)

09

Step
20 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and slightly crispy, flipping halfway through for even browning. (20 minutes)

10

Step
2 mins

Remove from the oven and garnish immediately with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy! (2 minutes)

For extra crispy fries, lightly spray the coated zucchini with cooking oil before baking.
Feel free to experiment with different seasonings! Garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika would be delicious additions.
If you don't have almond meal, you can make your own by grinding whole almonds in a food processor until finely ground.
These fries are best served immediately for optimal crispness. However, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven or air fryer.
