Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium zucchinis
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Ranch dressing for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and trim the ends of the zucchinis. Cut them into 1/4-inch thick fry shapes.
- Set up three shallow bowls. In the first, place the flour. In the second, whisk the eggs. In the third, combine panko breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Dredge each zucchini fry first in flour, then dip in the egg mixture, and finally coat thoroughly with the panko mixture.
- Arrange the coated zucchini fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t touch. You may need to cook in batches.
- Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve immediately with ranch dressing.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, you can double-coat the zucchini fries.
- Feel free to add other seasonings to the panko mixture, like paprika or onion powder.
- Ensure the zucchini fries are dry before coating for best adhesion.
