Instructions with egg:

  • Wash and dry the zucchinis thoroughly. They should not have any water on them!
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  • Cut zucchini’s into strips that are 2 inches in length, and 1/4 inch in width. Make sure they are this thin otherwise they will not get crispy!
  • Crack one egg into a bowl and beat thoroughly.
  • Place Bob’s Red Mill Almond flour in a bowl and combine with spices so it is evenly mixed.
  • Place zucchini pieces into egg wash one at a time, and then coat them in almond flour.
  • Lay on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they have room so you may need two baking sheets.
  • Place in the oven for 50-60 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Serve hot with yogurt dipping sauce, tzatziki sauce, or ketchup!
