These air-fried zucchini sticks are a light, crunchy, and flavorful appetizer that fits perfectly into any high-protein, low-calorie diet. Coated in a mix of Fit Flour and crushed cornflakes, then seasoned with garlic, onion, and paprika, they deliver the perfect bite with every crunch. The air fryer helps achieve that crisp golden texture without the need for deep frying, keeping things healthier. Each stick is lightly misted with olive oil before cooking, helping it crisp up while still keeping fat content low. Perfect as a party snack, side dish, or guilt-free indulgence, this recipe uses minimal ingredients and is done in minutes. One batch makes four zucchinis worth, and you won’t believe the macros. Serve hot with a dipping sauce or enjoy them straight from the fryer.
