Ingredients

2 medium zucchinis, sliced into 1/4-inch thick coins
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup breadcrumbs (panko recommended for extra crunch)
2 large eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil spray or cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Breading Station: In one bowl, combine the beaten eggs. In another bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Coat the Zucchini: Dip each zucchini coin into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated zucchini coins in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil spray.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the coins are golden brown and crispy. Flip halfway through for even cooking.
Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these crispy zucchini coins as a snack or appetizer!
