Tips & Tricks (5)

Moisture Removal Magic 💧
Pat zucchini completely dry with paper towels before coating to ensure maximum crispiness and prevent soggy fries.
Crumb Adhesion Technique 🧊
Chill your egg wash and panko mixture for 10 minutes before coating to help the breading stick more effectively to the zucchini.
Air Fryer Spacing Secret 📏
Arrange zucchini fries in a single layer with slight spacing between each piece to allow hot air circulation and achieve uniform crispiness.
Seasoning Layer Hack 🌶️
Mix your dry seasonings into the parmesan and panko mixture before coating for more evenly distributed and intense flavor.
Flip for Perfect Browning 🔄
Gently flip zucchini fries halfway through cooking to ensure an even, golden-brown crust on all sides.
