Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F and coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
- Mix the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder and salt in a shallow bowl.
- Whisk the egg in a separate bowl.
- Place the flour in a third bowl.
- Make an assembly line with the bowls, and first dip the zucchini coins into the flour, then the egg and finally into the bread crumb mixture, coating evenly and repeating with all the zucchini coins.
- Place all of the zucchini coins on the baking sheet. Arrange so they’re not touching, spray with cooking oil and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are golden.
- Serve as a side dish or on their own with favorite dipping sauces.
Notes
- Evenly Slice Zucchini: For consistent cooking, try to slice the zucchini into even 1/4-inch rounds. Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer can help you with achieving uniform slices. This ensures that the zucchini coins cook evenly and crisp up uniformly in the oven.
- a sharp knife
- mandoline slicer
- Have a wet hand and a dry hand: Use one hand for dunking zucchini slices in egg wash and transferring to the panko mixture (your wet hand), then switch to a dry hand for coating and placing them on the baking sheet.
- Don't forget the oil: Drizzle or spray your breaded zucchini slices with oil before baking them. The oil is what creates that beautiful golden color when they bake.
- Don't crowd the baking sheet: Cook the zucchini coins in and even layer with a little space between each one. If you overcrowd the baking sheet they'll steam in the oven and won't get nice and crispy.
- To Air Fry: heat your air fryer to 400°F and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Be sure to arrange them in a single layer with a bit of space between each piece of zucchini for even cooking
- To Freeze: Allow zucchini slices to cool completely, then transfer them to a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer the zucchini coins to a resealable freezer bag or airtight container. When ready to enjoy, reheat the frozen zucchini coins in a preheated oven at 375°F for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and crispy.
