Baked Zucchini Fries

[Stephanymtr]

INGREDIENTS

• 4 zucchinis
• 1/4 cup soy milk
• 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 4 tablespoons Italian seasoning
• 2 teaspoons baking powder

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large baking pan with parchment paper.
• Cut off ends of the zucchini and cut into wedges or fries, about ¼-inch thick.
• Place the zucchini fries in a large colander over a bowl. Salt them generously and allow them to “sweat” for 30 minutes. Next, drain and blot them as dry as possible with a paper towel or a tea towel.
• In a small bowl, pour the soymilk. In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, combine nutritional yeast, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, baking powder, and salt.
• Dip and roll the zucchini strip into the vegan milk. Then, toss evenly with the seasoning/breading mix. Repeat for all strips and place into a baking pan in a single layer.
• Bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway. Broil for about 2 minutes.

Well these look delicious! We could also bust out the air fryer for them 😅

@Stephanymtr These have good air frier instructions and a good take on seasonings: https://www.theconsciousplantkitchen.com/air-fryer-zucchini-chips/

Important: cook zucchini in advance by boiling them in the water OR removing the skin OR cutting them into really thin strips. The first batch didn't come out as soft as I thought it would.
