How to Make Zesty Baked Zucchini Sticks
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the zucchini into uniform sticks, approximately ½ inch thick.
- In a large bowl, mix breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
- Dip each zucchini stick into the egg mixture, letting the excess drip off, then roll it in the breadcrumb mixture.
- Place coated sticks on the baking sheet, leaving space in between. Drizzle lightly with olive oil or use cooking spray.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with homemade marinara sauce for dipping if desired.
