Air Fryer Zucchini Fries

Using a sharp knife, cut off the top and bottom of the zucchini. Cut each zucchini in half lengthwise, then place cut-side down and halve each piece widthwise. Cut into 1/2" thick fry shapes. For extra crispy fries, salt the zucchini fries and let stand for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Blot dry and proceed with step 2.

Place the egg in a small bowl and beat until incorporated. Combine the parmesan cheese, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a medium bowl.

Dip each zucchini fry in the egg, followed by the parmesan cheese, then place in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Place them on their sides as they cook up more evenly this way. If your air fryer is small, you may need to cook the fries in batches. Air fry at 400 degrees for 10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Taste and add salt as necessary. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!
