Step 1

Cut the zucchini. To cut the zucchini into fries, slice off the ends of each zucchini, then slice each one right in half, by placing a large kitchen knife on the center and slicing through. Then cut each half in half lengthwise and cut them into fries that are 3-4 inches long and about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 2

Prepare the coating mixture. In a shallow bowl, crack and whisk the egg and season it with salt and pepper. In a separate shallow bowl, combine the almond flour with the parmesan cheese, garlic, paprika, parsley, salt and pepper.

Step 3

Coat the zucchini fries. Set up a dredging area to coat the fries. Place the bowls with the egg and the coating next to the cut zucchini fries. Then coat each piece of zucchini in egg then in the almond flour mixture, pressing the coating into the zucchini as you coat it. Place the coated zucchini fries onto a plate or baking sheet. Continue coating all of the zucchini.

Step 4

Cook the zucchini fries. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F and spray the air fryer basket well with olive oil spray. Working in batches, place some of the zucchini fries in a single layer into the air fryer basket and spray them well with more olive oil spray. Close the basket and cook them for 4 minutes. Then flip them over, spray them well again with the olive oil spray and cook them for 4 more minutes. Place them onto a plate or platter. Continue until you have cooked all of the zucchini.

Step 5

Serve. You will want to serve these warm with your favorite dipping sauce. See post for dipping sauce recommendations.
